Guest guest Posted September 6, 2003 Report Share Posted September 6, 2003 I have heard that adding dye to the plastic weakens it. I don't know if this is true with every brand of AFO. jenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2003 Report Share Posted September 6, 2003 , In relooking at the AFOs mine may not be exact but darn close. I don't have padding at the ankles , they are open and that is a good thing as I don't want anything touching my ankles they are very tender to the touch, I do have a padding along the shin bone in the front. mary in OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 My AFO has padding and also has been heated out. Any time I get a new spot that rubs, Michigan Orthopedics takes care of it as soon as I get there and either redoes the padding or adds more. They are great. And I did not know they came in colors. Mine is clear, or I should say white, but they are kind of a combination of a milky clear white, if that makes sence.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2003 Report Share Posted September 7, 2003 My AFOs are the same color as yours, Elaine. I have on strap also; on the top around my calf. Barb.......Fl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
