Finally, after 25 weeks of healing from lisfranc surgery, I am able to do 2 full hours of regular housework, including being able to vacuum!!

Step-by-Step Recovery: How Long to Wear a Post-Op Shoe After a Broken Toe The duration of wearing a post-op shoe after a broken toe can vary depending on several factors, including the severity of the injury and the recommendations of your healthcare professional. Typically, the initial phase of recovery involves wearing the post-op shoe for a specific period to provide the necessary support and protection to the injured toe. This phase may last for a few weeks or as directed by your healthcare provider. As your toe heals and you progress through the recovery process, your healthcare professional will guide you on gradually reducing the duration of wearing the post-op shoe. It is crucial to follow their instructions and gradually transition to normal footwear to avoid setbacks. Remember, every individual's healing process is unique, so consulting with your healthcare professional is essential in determining the specific duration for wearing the post-op shoe and achieving a successful recovery.
