What happened?: It sounds like you may have sprained your foot or ankle but you have not said what is going on, what happened, and when it began. Either way, the doc who prescribed the boot is the best person to tell you the best way to successfully and rapidly recover from your injury. Get a second opinion from a podiatrist or orthopedist, taking copies of any x-rays and records with you, if you want to.
