Not sure what to think

Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation... thanks to the application of a regular Ace Bandage, by foot is feeling 89% better and I am fully confident that I'll be able to do The Convention without crutches or the silly prescription medically fitted "Western Walker" boot. I'm hobbling around the house just fine. Not at 100% or anything - still hurts enough to keep me looking for a chair every 20 feet or so - but definitely feeling well enough to wonder if my doctor is getting some sort of kick-back from the only place in the State that sells those Western Walker Medical Boots.

May there be plenty of panels that interest you and may they be spread out enough to allow you to rest well without even knowing it!

As a multiple-time injury case, the most recent requiring Physical Therapy for 2 months after the fact...

..Get the boot. Or at the very least one of those ankle-brace things that straps on. Believe me. You'll want the extra support.

Its been 2 years since my most recent injury & I still highly value my lace-up ankle boots because of the extra support they provide...

Maybe wearing the walker boot would be helpful for all that walking anyhow... keep you from having to sit so often?

Or get a HOVEROUND!!
