I broke my ankle and leg in October and had to have hardware put in. My ankle has one screw and two tightrope devices.
I’m at the point where I’m back to my normal routine aside from the one day a week I do physical therapy. I’m coming to realize that literally none of the shoes I own are not comfortable anymore. They all make my ankle feel worse and do not expand enough when my foot swells up.
I’m going to an outdoor mall with some friends in a couple weeks so we can try to find me some shoes. There’s like 3 or 4 shoe stores, so hopefully I’ll find something. My doctor told me that supportive shoes would be best, but didn’t say what specific kind of support since my ankle hardware and bones are completely stable. He told me to go with whatever feels the best when doing daily stuff and the physical therapy exercises. I think I’ll be able to trust my body enough to get the right shoes. I know what shoes don’t work for me rn… All of the ones I own 🥲
