Hi fediverse,

On Friday I managed to break my foot when my dog decided to panic on a jog. I have a minor fracture.

I was put in a splint. ER released me, told me to get a boot (which I’ve ordered). I’ve been unable to find any answers online though: once I have the boot, is that enough support to remove the splint? Or will I need to wear both?

Edited to add: I broke the anterior process! Very thankful it wasnt worse. Thanks for the not-a-doctor advice yall ❤️

    Depends on the boot.

    The more expensive ones come with multiple air bladders and you inflate one the boot is strapped on. You can adjust where and how tight.
