Swede-O® short walking boot helps immobilize the ankle and is ideal for severe ankle sprains, stable ankle fractures, post-surgery and post-cast recovery. Studies show that bearing weight on a stable injury helps facilitate recovery, allowing the patient to return to normal activity at a faster rate. Designed with a non-slip rocker bottom and low profile heel to promote natural gait. Shock absorbing, closed cell foam insole and heel cushion absorb and dissipate the impact of heel strike when walking. A wide foot bed provides increased stability and accommodates for edema and bandage while a deluxe foam liner provides comfort. Swede-O® walking boot is durable, lightweight and includes fitting pads to accommodate extra space around the ankle, heel or leg. Anatomically contoured uprights provide a comfortable fit. Bilateral design fits right or left foot.
