5th base metatarsal fracture
Hi,
It's been 5 weeks that I have fracture. I am asked to walk in an air cast shoe.
I have XL sized shoe but my size is S, can I still use it?
Is there anyone who provides air cast shoe on rent?
Is there a difference between a Air cast shoe vs Walker shoe?

Air cast is universal in size you can you it.
If you still feel uncomfortable then you can get a synthetic walking cast done for 6 weeks.
