Suggest Method To Wear Moon Boot While Driving After Ankle Break
I have a strange question to ask, i had broken my right ankle (gas pedal foot) a few weeks back and have been in plaster since. When i get out of plaster ill have to wear a moon boot, just curious if I d be aloud to take it off to drive and put it straight back on when not driving?
No. If you will not wear it and then drive then there is chances that you might get displacement of fracture fragment. So I would recommend you to avoid driving and removing this.
