 Re: Air cast boot
LH 1968    8:48pm May 23 2012

I have been in my boot for 4 weeks. Until yesterday I wore it 24/7; only taking it off to shower. Now my OS has given me the green light to take it off while sleeping but I find it isn't bothersome and still wear it at night. It does become heavy. The incision areas get sore and achy when I wear it, but I really like the protection it gives me because twice now I've been up without it on and bumped my bad foot. I've yet to pump any air into it as it makes the boot too snug.

I sure wish they were more fashionable! LOL!
