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.

Not sure exactly what your problem is but I had to switch to shoes that had flat heels after a knee injury. The elevated heel twisted my knee in a way that caused pain if I wore them for an extended period. Since then I buy only “zero-drop” shoes.

If I may, please allow me to point out that while I know exactly what you meant; ref someone’s “problem” is a good way to go straight adversarial.

You clearly/unequivocally meant “I’m not thoroughly vested in your deepest values,but I hear you saying x.”

That said, TY for offering advice from a place of achievement.

I don’t really understand what you mean by this. Are you saying that because sometimes people use the phrase in a combative way it could be misunderstood?

I thought it was clear enough from context that I meant “I don’t know the nature of your injury and this may or may not apply to you” but let me know if that was not as clear to you.
