Regarding the swelling in my ankles, my spinal deformity and postural instability usually I wear boot, mainly "ankle" boots with 4-5 cm high heels. These height of heels is needed to hold my back , myself straightly, to remain a "homo erectus", the boots help me not to let my ankles be sprained as they surround them so tightly, and even there is enough place for the swelling. In summers and in warmer days I am in trouble ... When I was a young girl there were so called summer boots - but nowadays I cannot find either one at ll .
