Does it delay the healing process if i walk around the house not wearing the boot on my broken foot?

Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER.

For the best recovery, follow your orthopedic surgeon's instructions. If you were told to wear the boot, even when walking around the house, please do so.

Regards,
