how can i start walking on my Air-cast Ankle Brace ?

8 weeks ago i broke my tibia right above my ankle and i recently got my cast off.They put me a Aircast Ankle Brace and im really scared to walk on it due to the fact that,it stings alittle when i put around 40 pl of wight on it.Can some one with experiance please help on how long could i start putting preasure on it?

First off.... I assume your doctor told you that you can start putting weight on it. If he/she did not tell you if you could or could not, then you need to contact them.

To best answer your question about how long it takes.... It all depends on the injury and the person. But one things is true, it does not get better until you start using it.

Once you are cleared to start putting weight on it, I would suggest you do it a little at a time. If you are sitting around watching a TV show, every time a commercial comes on stand up and put some weight on it. Shift your weight from the good leg to the injured leg. Start with the 40 lbs that you can handle. Then do 40lbs counting to 10 - 30 seconds. Each commercial break try to put more weight on for longer time. (increase it by a small amount and only do what you can tolerate) You will have some discomfort but you should be able to do more and more as you get more used to it.

Do they having you use crutches for walking? If so, as you practice walking, you can take use the crutches to take some of the weight off. Soon you will be able to tolerate more weight.

Good luck...
