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.
This would be my goal, too. Wear no shoes as much as possible and make sure your feet will work like they’re supposed to again. Wear as minimal shoes as possible when going completely barefoot isn’t feasible.
If that doesn’t work, seek medical help that aims to restore your feet to a point where it is.
If that doesn’t work, then accept invalidity and try to cope. Again, following medical advice only.
