Semi-Wordless Wednesday: A Strongly Taped Ankle

Dr. Folske recommended something called “rigid strapping tape” for my foot. He’s taped me up twice after I’ve seen him for some heel work, and I’ve purchased a box online as well. It’s very strong and “rigid” (as the name implies), and 2 pieces criss-crossing down the back of my heel (as well as 2 more to hold those first 2 in place) work as a mini-boot support for my heel.

When he first taped me up, I tried to take it off over 3 days later after a swim, an aqua jog, and a bike ride, and it was still STUCK on quite well:


I got this far before deciding to soak it first.


It’s angering every hair follicle as I try to remove it after 80 hours!

So before I went back to Folske earlier this week, I shaved my lower ankle. That has helped quite a bit.
