How To Put on and Wear Aircast Walking Boot

www.synergysmg...
Wondering how to put on and wear the Aircast Walking Boot? The boot walker is used for treatment of severe ankle sprains and foot fractures. Benefits offered to the wearer include a customized level of comfort via the adjustable straps and the air cell pockets located on the side walls of the brace.
It is generally recommended you wear a cotton cast sock over the injured foot. Remember to position your heel against the back of the cast. Next, wrap the liner over your leg being sure to smooth out any wrinkles in the liner fabric.
Place the protective plate over your shin and the top of your foot. Tighten the straps on the front of the Aircast boot, making sure they are snug and comfortable at all times.
Locate the aircell valve at the back of the brace near your ankle. Squeeze the bulb of the air pump until the aircell feels snug.

[@theturkey777]

Thank you so much I didn’t know how to deflate it and I couldn’t get my foot back in

[@RGSuperfan]

Thank you so much for explaining. The instructions on the paper were not very clear. I broke my foot 2 days ago, now I can finally walk around again!

[@MightyWarrior4Jesus]

Yeahhh You don’t just walk around in this thing with a broke foot….it’s after it’s healed in a cast. You may have sprained it but definitely not broken and walking in this thing.

[@RGSuperfan]

@@MightyWarrior4Jesus sorry, I didn't get the notification. But, indeed, I got X Ray and my 5th metatarsal was really broken. Of course not a big fracture, but I still one.

[@Chi.dolars]

@@RGSuperfan Did walking on the boot right after you got the fracture help you?

[@coryshea856]

@@RGSuperfanhow long did you wear the boot for with the broken toe before it healed? Did you ever get a cast

[@kookeyruggs4581]

I have two fractured toes, and I got an aircast yesterday . It was very comfortable when the doctor put it on. Now that I have put it on its pressure on my toes from the boot. I adjusted the straps.Still had a little pressure on my toe when walking. Any suggestions on how to get the boot back to feeling comfortable.

[@annfrederking1878]

I have the longer one and think maybe I should have had the shortie instead for an ankle sprain. I DO have a comment about sitting on the rolling chair when putting the boot on. That's possibly dangerous because the chair can roll out from under you when trying to stand up.

Can't wait to get my fibre glass cast off being able to get around without bruised armpits be nice

[@MrMac1219]

T-T i shattered my heel so i just got shifted into the boot and am still advised not to walk on it for a minimum 7 weeks.

[@af7748]

I have a broken foot and got a knee rover bc I couldn’t handle crutches. Total life saver. They’re available on Amazon or local medical supply companies.

[@allie5968]

If your armpits are bruised you are using crutches wrong. I am on crutches right now and the doctor specifically told me that if you push with your underarms you can pinch nerves and do damage. You’re supposed to use your forearms to push off and hold yourself above the crutch. I’ve been on mine for 6-7 weeks now and no bruising or pain.

[@Andrew-lr6tx]

Move the hand grips up. You should be taking the weight on your hands, not your arm pits.

[@debradavid1394]

Yup wearing mine wrong on the top part. Question is how tight should the toe part be?

[@dcheverie]

I am wearing one of these now, this did help me. However, I have no idea why you are putting the strap through both holes.. Just making more work for yourself

[@veroa1985]

This makes for a snugger fit.

[@Charlie-i1q]

When I’m lieing down with the boot on do I need to deflate?

[@AdyLie13]

Thx I recently broke my toe and needed on of these. I didn’t know if I put it on right.

[@sonicthehedgehoggamingfan8028]

The Adynman you are not alone. I broke my right 2nd toe on my 16th birthday.

[@BarbicideSmoothie]

How you holding up? I broke my right pinkie toe 3 days ago & these reviews are golden. With so many of these walking boots, its been confusing on which best for toes. Thanks hope you are much better😊

[@itsnesee]

[@denniswoodard4830]

Is there a right and left boot for the taller model? The flaps fold so the end of inside one is against my big toe and is hurting it.

[@susanw489]

Argh neither one of my specialists told me anything about optimal wearing. Damn.

[@creamcheese7845]

Yup same with mine. Was like being on a production line.

[@aniger5021]

Same here, this is vital information that should be shared with a patient

[@shantel_r_9173]

Oh no I just used this video when I got my air cast ha. I used it again to now park my friend about my leg

[@catistrolling7333]

Great video gave my boot told me nothing and I started looking today for video cause I wash it every day on bottom and wondering why it was all wet inside

[@alveanjones4524]

Do you only wear this during the day or have it on 24/7?

[@BeverlyJudkins]

Thank you so much. I had the tabs on the tongue part at the ankle on the inside. Then I watched your video, and put the upper tabs on the outside of the plastic boot and the tabs of the tongue on the inside of plastic boot on the foot part. Feels better now.
