"Medical" Question - BJoe - 08-30-2006

Now lets see if I can do this right this time.........

I've got a quick question, as some of you know I sprained my foot at the Naperville store a few weeks back and I'm getting better as time passes. I had a doctors appointment and he suggested getting a lace up ankle brace for the time being till things get better. Anybody know where I can find one in either the West Chicago/St. Charles/Geneva area on in the Fox Valley Mall area. I know there was a sports medicine equipment store next the store front for the old Geneva store on Randall Rd, but it's probably been years since I was there last and actually paid attention to what was there.

Jewel osco has alot of differnt ankle supports. When i tore tendons in my ankles i ended up getting them there... BTW, its a long slow process... Soft tissue injuries are horribly slow to heal. Did the bottom of your foot turn black? Mine did twice!

Any pharmacy should have them. Even Target carries some.

I am pretty sure Walgreens does too.

After I had my knee surgery I bought a knee brace from here and I will never look anyplace else, shipment was super fast and lots of different designs to choose from. And I think the prices that I have found are good

This is the one I got, had it for about 7 months and it's working out great for me.

GOOD GOD NO, mine didn't turn black! With diabetes running in my family, I'd have panicked for sure on that one:eek: I wasn't too sure on if I could find that stuff at a regular store/pharmacy (it's been almost 9 years since I left the Osco in West Chicago and I haven't kept up on that sort of thing since then). I'm going over to the Fox Valley Meijer after work tonight, maybe I'll look while there.

Thanks for the responses guysConfusedalute:
