Have you ever experienced the ortho walk? If you have worn an orthopedic boot for even a short time, Welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On January 10th 2022 I slipped and fell on some black ice. A couple of days later my experience started with the orthopedic boot. I had fractured my lower left fibula leg bone. Time to stop working and heal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next six weeks I lived in my recliner 24\/7. I was officially out of work due to this leg injury. Since it was my left leg I did have some car mobility. That said it was just short trips to the store and back. I thought having six weeks off from work would be fun. Watch all the TV I want. Stay up all hours of the day and night. Just veg out and do nothing. Sounds like a great way to relax. Not!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first couple of weeks I had some pain to deal with. Not a lot but enough to make life uncomfortable. I was always moving around trying to find a comfortable position. Then when I did get comfortable I would just fall sleep in my recliner. I was sleeping a lot both day and night. Guess that is the part of the healing cycle. Let that fractured fibula heal so you can get back to a normal life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this healing process I wore the orthopedic boot 24\/7. Had to keep the leg immobilized so the fracture could heal. It was an awkward feeling but the boot was also comforting knowing that my leg was healing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wednesday March 30 2022, my boot was officially OFF! I had been recovering nicely. I was spending more and more time out of the boot. My Physical Therapist said I did a great job at recovery. I really worked that lag and ankle to get rid of the boot. I wanted to get back into my real world that involved dancing and traveling and working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When did you ever break a bone? What was your experience with an orthopedic boot?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay safe and keep on traveling and dancing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone, First a link from my sponsors. https:\/\/t-adbar.com\/_wozu Have you ever had the thrill of wearing an orthopedic boot?
