I have been told that because my feet have dropped they can no longer rests in a 90° angle. The solution is to put a niche in my Achilles' tendon to stretch out the Achilles so my foot will be closer to a 90° angle which would spread the pressure more evenly along the bottom of my foot. I was wondering if anyone had this done and if so, how did it work out? Glenn Louisiana Disability Alliance, NSCIA P.O. Box 86632, Baton Rouge, LA 70817 Ph: 225-436-4519 [email protected]
