Welcome ! (( current patient))

Excellent video thank you

I have a cam boot and I need to use crutches and I had no idea how to do it

Thank you for this video, and THANK YOU for providing closed captioning considerations for the Deaf and hard of hearing!

Hello Doc. I broke my ankle on 28th May 2024 and today 12 July I started to walk on one cane. Thank you for showing me the way of walking this way!

I am 6 days into a full left knee replacement. Walking without a walker, feel great, little to no pain. Biggest issue for me has been swelling.

Brilliant!

Do you leave the foot at night?

Great demo

8 years after and this video is still useful! My doctor didn't show me how to walk with boots at all.

Yeah even up the hips! All health professionals should be recommending this to avoid further discomfort, pain, and injury. The product is called Even up

I start 25% tomorrow I can't wait. I've been 7 weeks in the bed and couch

My dr told me recently that my crutches are now optional, BUT said I can only have about 40% weight on my foot. I'm like, what?!?!? How can I take a step but not have 100% of my weight on that foot when the other foot is off the floor???? My husband thinks I'm dumb as a result...but I just don't understand it. Thank you for the explanation here that 50% still needs support and that without the crutches it's 100% half the time. Edited to add, as of the date I wrote this, I'm about 1 month post-op from surgery for Haglund's Deformity and Achilles tendon repair (severing it, removing part of it to get rid of some calcifications in it from a broken spur, then removing the spur and deformity). After watching your videos on 25% and this one for 50%, I realize I've been doing it wrong and have been putting too much weight on that foot. No wonder it's been hurting so much more than I thought it should be! I'll have to ease up. Thanks!

Bullshit video

Thank you

Dr. Told me weight bearing on a scale with a walking boot but not walking what is that mean in 4 week went u reach full bearing he want to start wearing a regular shoes with a ankle brace

Sir, Madam, I am an orthopedics patient. I got seriously injured and broke my left leg in a road accident in Bangladesh. I have had several operations on my feet in Bangladesh. But it did not yield any results. I was a victim of a road accident in the last two thousand and one years. Two thousand and twenty three years have passed since then. I am living a very difficult life. That is called the living of humanity. I applied to many hospitals around the world for treatment of my feet. But no one responded to me. I am asking you for humanitarian help as a human being. I need better treatment. I think every doctor in the world is humane. I believe that some great doctor will come forward to treat me. I have two little girls. Their future will be dark for me. As a father, I cannot accept that. Please help me please. Someone help me for better treatment, please. I don't want to take any treatment in Bangladesh and Asia. I want to go to any developed country in the world such as America, London, France, Spain and take treatment in these countries. I have been suffering for almost twenty three years now. If you help me a little, then the Creator will help you. God bless all, Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏 My address: I am: M.A. Quader, Banshkhali, Chittagong-4393, Bangladesh. My mobile and whatsapp number: 01819-877376, I wish you all the best. thank you *****

PUEDEN TRADUCIR EN INGLES??

My physiotherapist came to my home to explain this to me for both my walker and the crutches. I find it very scary anyways to put a lot of weight, am recovering from a tibia plateau fracture and on top of that broke the outside bone of my foot on that same leg, so l was told it's going to be a long revalidation period. Small steps literally, but we are going forward, to all in this process of learning to walk again, lots of patience and perseverance, we can do it 👊🏽💗🫶🏼

😅

Thanks for this. Broke my ankle in a bicycle accident and am finally on the road to recovery.

I just wish they printed what happens to the majority of people who been through a tkr

When should i start after calcaneum fracture

With. No. Shoe. Lifter. For. Good. Foot. People. Are. Uncomfortable. Walking. Sideways, more. Research. Needs. To. Be. Done. Into. The. Boot. When. And. How. To. Wear it. You. Never wear it in bed. Like a lot of. People. Have been. Told

Thank you! How conveniently that have been doing exactly what the video describes! I didn’t know what 25% really was. I was guessing the whole time walking exactly like this!

Thanks.

That's My Girl. Get Well Honey. ❤

I really wish creators would DITCH the music when they are trying to impart info, it is SO annoying to have to filter the two.

I like it because it's straight to the point, "lets get on with it". Too many instructional videos contain waffle and you find yourself scrolling through. Keep it simple.

¿ Y la muleta Nova del lado del pie afectado.????.

9 weeks after 3 metatarsal breaks and I’m allowed to start walking in a boot. Having trouble balancing on the boot and end up falling, not sure how to fix that issue but this helped. Even if it’s 6 years old.

I had surgery on my foot they took a bone spur out and I got my stitiches out on Turesday. I have to wear a boot but I can put 50% weight on my foot and watch with crutches. My question is going down stairs. How would I do that.

At 6 weeks I started partial weight bearing with 2 crutches and I see the doctor next week (week 8). I am hoping to transition to a shoe/sneaker not to long after full weight bearing! I can't take this boot anymore.

I broke my ankle on the springboard in gym class back in grade 7ish. About 50 years ago. It was a bad break but seems like I rocketed through the casts, walking cast etc. One day I just went out to the tool shed and cut the thing off myself and was back running in gym class. No physiology or anything. On June 6th I had ankle fusion surgery. That was 6 weeks ago and I'm getting ready to start bearing weight. Totally a different story now that I'm older and much heavier. This physio is going to be long and torturous. I'm actually a little worried.

Been searching through KZbin for a video that would finally explain this! So happy I found this. Makes me feel confident enough now that I know what I should be feeling and doing!!! Thank you! Thank you 😊

I'm a PTA, have been for 22 years and this is not how I was taught. TTWB/FFWB is what you describe in this video. What I say is "Act like there's an egg under the ball of your foot. Don't break it." 25%WB means you can put down 25% of your weight. If you are 190#, you put your affected leg on a scale and press down no more than 48-50#.

Talus fracture can't be cure forever im I right 😥

How many times a day can i walk 50% ? And how far?

Thank you .

People and doctors! Please give your patients a shoe lifter for the good foot. Your hip is three inches higher and you will have enormous issues with hip pain once you start to walk again. Also, your knee takes ALL the force of the step when your ankle is immobilised. This will be detrimental to your whole body for weeks after the boot is off. I had an avulsion fracture on the 5th metatarsal and micro fractures on my cuboid. Nasty injury! I stayed on two crutches for two weeks after the boot came off using incremental weight bearing during the day but mostly non-weight bearing, then a single crutch for 5 weeks with partial weight bearing. I rested the leg higher than heart for two hours a day to relieve oedema. Then one crutch for outside for two weeks, just for security on unstable surfaces. I am 4 months out of the boot and feel some discomfort but not much pain anymore. The perineal tendon is super tight and this takes time to open up. Also your calcaneus is still super flexible for up to 6 weeks out of the boot and even longer, and soft tissues are still sensitive and healing. So let your body be your guide. Don’t aggravate your injury by overusing it. Get X-rays at 3 months, six months and 12 months. And strengthen and stretch your hip flexors! Your butt will be completely atrophied and this is the time to build it up, so you have less strain on your feet.

Thank you sir,I am at that stage this week after 7 wks after accident

Reading the comments most of you need to see another doctor or listen more carefully to the one you have.

After a month in a walking boot, Dr told me he want to see me in my shoe, out of the walking boot... Start walking again. Made me stand on my injury leg while my good leg was lifted up. Kinda crazy felt like my ankle was about to break again... Not even 25% weight bearing... So I requested physical therapy to help with the process.

I’ve been doing it all wrong, that’s why I’m still in pain.

Thanks for this video! Can you upload more videos of transitions from crutches to full weight bearing and thereafter?

That's really good. I'm 54 years old been a cyclist off and on throughout my life. Working as a carpenter my legs have always been strong. I'm 3 weeks out of surgery I'm only at about an 85% bend and can't get my leg to be straight. Like I said I went in surgery in good shape and I've never worked so hard in my life to so little results I'm really worried.
