Short leg cast on my torn Achilles tendon at work - February 2022

At work with a non-weight bearing cast for my torn Achilles tendon and another tendon in my rear foot from running. 8 weeks of going to work like this. If you have to wear a cast, it's always good if you can leave your cast toes unsocked and go bare on your other foot too or use a sandal because the heat really does get trapped in your casted leg. Not maybe the easiest thing to do at work but they'll often let you do that and wear shorts during your immobilization phase. I was on crutches the whole time I had the first cast (4 weeks) and then another week after getting the second one. Then on both feet again for 3 more weeks.
