Broken foot question.....

ajf · 4 Jan 2008 at 14:27

I broke my foot a few weeks ago and have had a cast on it since. When I went back today I asked about the removable Aircast 'boots' but the technician I spoke to reckoned they were very bulky and not much easier to walk in than a normal cast.

Just wondering if anyone here has had a similar injury and used an Aircast boot?
What are they like to wear and walk round in?

Thanks
Andrew

Sorry, if this is inapropriate please remove, but I thought it would be OK as I was just asking for general opinions rather than 'medical' advice.

Sod the aircast boots. Get some of those running spring boots that make you go 30mph!

Ignore him, he's just stirring because he has nothing better to do.

Lol. I was only running upstairs when I did the original injury. Can you imagine the damage I would do with those things?

They doo look good fun though....
