The boot is economically priced without compromising on quality - which is why it is used daily by NHS prescribers.

Fracture Boot Features

Wide Fitting - Wide footbed provides a comfortable fit and accommodates a wider variety of patients while providing adequate room for dressings, foot casts and sock supports.

Fracture Boot FAQs

1. How long does a fracture take to heal in a boot?

The healing time for a fracture varies depending on the specific bone affected and the severity of the injury. Typically, bones take six to eight weeks to heal, but this timeline can be longer depending on the severity of your fracture.

2. Can I walk with a fractured foot in a boot?

Walking with a fractured foot while wearing a boot is often permitted, but it depends on the fracture's severity and your doctor's advice. The boot stabilises the foot, allowing limited weight-bearing as tolerated. Always consult your healthcare provider before putting weight on an injured foot.

3. What does a fracture boot do?

A fracture boot, also known as a walking boot or Controlled Ankle Motion (CAM) boot, is designed to immobilise and protect the foot and ankle after an injury. It helps maintain proper alignment, reduces movement, and supports healing by limiting stress on the affected area.

4. How long should you wear a fracture boot for?

The duration for wearing a fracture boot varies based on the injury's severity and individual healing progress. Your doctor may have you use a boot for 1 to 6 weeks.

5. What is the difference between a cast and a boot?

Casts and boots both serve to immobilise and protect injured bones. Casts are rigid and typically made from plaster or fibreglass, providing complete immobilisation and are not removable without special tools. Boots, or walking boots, are adjustable, removable, and allow for some movement, offering more flexibility during the healing process.

6. Should I wear my fracture boot to bed?

Whether to wear your fracture boot to bed depends on your doctor's instructions. Some healthcare providers recommend wearing the boot while sleeping to prevent accidental movements that could hinder healing, while others may allow removal at night. Always follow your doctor's specific guidance regarding nighttime use of the boot.
