    sorry wrong place!


    Hello All,

    I snapped my Achilles on 19th December in Spain, I was put in a cast due to having to travel to the UK, and operated on the 24th December in the UK.

    I returned to Spain and after finally registering with a doctor, they checked the dressing on 6th January and I finally got an appointment yesterday with an orthopedic doctor, they sent me to get a walker boot, which the orthopedic chemist (that's how it works here ) removed the cast and fitted a boot, this was 90degrees and gave me pain, so a Spanish friend after speaking to the doctor, returned it and has come back with a ROM walker with adjustable hinge a protect by medi i think.

    My next Doctors appointment is in 1week and I don't know when my first Physio will be. I have no support on the foot but don't know what settings to make this boot or If I should even attempt to fit it and if there is any physio I should be doing now?
