I still walk on one today. Had achilles surgery 40 years ago and injured again 5 years ago. The Dr's say it will take 3 surgeries and two years off work to fix and they don't advise doing, they now would have to extend it about 6". So I just get shoes with graphite rods along the soles outside edge to hem me up and keep my foot from rolling.
Yet was bowling and wearing regular shoes and tore my meniscus and ACL 6 months ago, probably because of my achilles and not wearing proper shoes. They only addressed my meniscus and cleaned up the ACL which is 70% torn saying at my age a knee replacement was in the future anyway. Sux getting old and put out to pasture lol.
Hope Burrow gets back to full strength quickly.

The water tastes funny when you're far from your home,
yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam.
