When I first got this pre rx dx I was put in a an airboot for a few months and I had no break or sprain. When I got out of it I had no strength in my leg and it felt constantly broken. I do feel the airboot because it did keep it in a rigid position made my condition and pain much worse. I would encourage you to talk to your doctor about the bandage. The doctor who is rx this is it a pain doc? Have you seen one who deals with rsd? If I were you I would. Hang in there

No pain dr. yet. I was diagnosed by my 2nd podiatrist. The first one sent me back to work with a "bunch of broken bones. I haven't been to pain dr. because I am still under pod. care and I feel like he is my savior right now. He knows so much about rsd. He and my reg. dr. speak often and regular dr. prescribes all but plavix and vicodine. Pod. does that. Went to physical ther. He screwed my foot up and I ended up back in air boot for 5 more weeks than I should have. I was off work for 9 months and I'm not willing to stop. Pod. sees me anytime I call.
