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.

    My dad broke his foot and had to have a screw put in, and he just wore Birkenstock sandals for a long time afterwards. Though, I know this isn’t the right time of year (in the northern hemisphere) for those

    Also, this probably isn’t a relevant suggestion because it’s for a different kind of ailment, but my mom has fallen arches and really likes On shoes

    Feet and leg injuries are horrible, I hope you find a solution and i wish you a speedy recovery

        Seconding On shoes. My fancy pants wife got me a pair a couple years ago, and now just about every other shoe feels cheap and unsupportive by comparison
