Edit to add: there is some inflate button but no one ever told me how to use it and I tried Google lens and no luck so I will wait till dr appt tomorrow. Edited to correct sit to “Inflate” sorry my phone has a mind of its own. I found it for the air brace and the inflate button is for support if I had a fractured ankle. No pin but my gauze wrapping keeps coming up out of the ace bandage, anyone else? And the boot seems to dig into the top of my foot laying or setting or standing but I can’t find any part of the boot that is so any idea ?

I think it’s just tightness from the stitches between your toes🤔 I felt like something was digging into my toe but it’s been 3 years and it still feels weird between my big toe and second toe 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Whenever I have mine on I get really bad sharp heel pain, I’m supposed to leave it on 24/7 until the 17th when I go back. But I take it off when I’m just laying around or going to bed.

I wasn't allowed to wear a boot until week 3 and the bandages were off by then

I’m supposed to keep my boot on from first Friday in Sept until Sept 17 for post op visit. I was allowed to removed when I made it home to readjust. And to sleep at night but I did take it off 3 times total and my husband thinks that is why the packing came out and they let me rewrap it to stop the toes from rubbing but I do go back Tuesday so the surgeon can check it. I’m trying to be patient and not 💯 unwrap it not now to figure out what is rubbing it.
