It’s important to be knowledgeable about when too much inflation in your boot could cause harm to your injury. If you over-inflate the air cells in the boot, it could possibly cause skin irritation to the area. An example of this skin irritation is a pressure sore, which is a result of prolonged pressure on a specific spot on the body. When wearing an \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAir Boot\u003c\/strong\u003e for a long period of time, make sure you are getting checked regularly by their physician to ensure that there isn’t skin irritation or the beginning stages of pressure sores.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDiscomfort usually coincides with the healing process but over-inflation can cause additional pain.

Higher pressure is advised when you are walking or doing other physical activity, whereas lower pressure is recommended and more comfortable when sitting or lying down. If you are going to sleep with your pneumatic compression boot on, release some air pressure to a lower level, and ensure that there is no direct pressure on the injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTHREE DIFFERENT DEGREES OF ANKLE SPRAINS TO PAIR WITH AN AIRCAST BOOT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is very common to twist your ankle exercising, playing sports, or just plain landing on it wrong.
