Reader tip:
Balance and strength are at a minimum after serious injury, and the last thing you need is another fall. Purchase a supply of hospital style socks with the anti skid coating on the bottom. These will provide warmth and a sure footing. House slippers are often constricting due to elastic bindings. Slip-on slippers have a tendency to slip-off at the worst possible moment. Slippers are also nearly impossible for the patient to manage after surgery. Think safety. Knitted hospital "over-socks" are just the ticket for additional warmth without binding or putting additional pressure on the swollen foot.
