I have ordered platform trainers just to give my good foot some height. Hopefully that will level me out and I will be able to put normal weight into my injured leg. I need to get my weight into it to stimulate the bone grow.
I have a block of wood in the kitchen that I use to balance me out when I am pottering in the kitchen. It feels comfortable when I am doing this. I can really stretch my leg and feel all my muscles having a good stretch.
I have been working hard on the exercises the Physio introduced to me. However I have some muscle fatigue from the leg raises I do. The Physio says I have been over doing them. I am having lots of protein in the form of chicken and fish to help repair the muscles. I am still trying to do the leg raises but resting to allow muscle recovery. Again it's a fine balance. I feel I need to make an investment in these exercises to aid good recovery and progress the rehab.
I am very please with my toes and how the are getting stronger. The Physio asked if I could stretch them but I haven't worked that one out yet. I will keep trying.
