I got new x-rays on Tuesday, and the doc said I was done with the boot. No running or jumping for another six weeks? No problem there.

I wore an Aircast™ plastic cast for almost six weeks, and I guess it was OK. It squeezed my toes, so I couldn’t wear it as tight as I thought I was supposed to, but the doc said that it didn’t need to be very tight (pretty much just wearing it does the thing). Another note the techs didn’t share with me (but that I learned on wikipedia): your feet swell when you sleep, so don’t pump up the air part of the Aircast™ too tight before going to bed.

The crutches (pictured in the previous post) were awful, so I bought myself a pair of these forearm-style crutches. Totally worth it.
