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 used to wear Adidas turf golf shoes daily because they were so g-dang comfy and used Velcro instead of laces. They were discontinued and I can’t find them anymore. My last pair were destroyed last year by my dog. I legit cried over them lol.
Tbh, though, I have no idea what kind of shoes would even suit my bad foot now. I used to love wearing just thin slippers inside and those just feel wrong on my ankle. Idk how to describe the feeling other than wrong. I’m also having trouble remembering how to move in certain ways as well. I can finally go up stairs normally, but the movements to go down the stairs is confusing.
I’m hoping getting shoes that feel right will help me learn how to move around like a normal adult again lol.
It will all go back to normal. You won’t even notice anymore. It takes time. Go to the shoe store and try some stuff out
