When to Begin Wearing Post Operative Foot Orthotics

Post operative foot orthotics play a key role in recovery from foot and ankle surgery by providing support, alignment, and protection during the healing process. Patients are typically advised to begin wearing orthotics once the initial healing phase has passed and their podiatrist has confirmed that weight-bearing is safe. At this stage, orthotics help redistribute pressure, reduce strain on healing tissues, and guide proper foot function. They also assist in preventing complications like abnormal gait patterns or recurrence of deformities. Timing can vary depending on the procedure and individual healing rates, so it is important for patients to follow personalized recommendations from their podiatrist. If you are recovering from foot surgery, it is suggested that you confer with your podiatrist who can advise you on the best time to begin wearing post-operative foot orthotics.
