Ready to transition out of boot

Posted on December 17th, 2016 by smittyinpa

Well, I went from PWB to FWB in my boot over the past month. I’m ready to lose the boot but don’t see my doctor until 12/29. Therapy is going well but my therapist wont clear me to walk without the boot until I see my surgeon. He feels I am being managed conservatively compared to the usual protocol. I did have a bad tear so that may be a factor. I have one heel lift in the boot and think I will remove it in a day or two. I can always put it back in if needed. Can’t believe its been 12 weeks since my injury already!

    Yes the brace did rub the incision. I took it off when sitting at work. At this point I am 100% out of the brace and even soft socks bother the incision. I’m using coconut oil at night to hopefully soften the scar.

    Does the ankle brace bother your incision sight at all?
