Medical issues and Highland Dress
Greetings all, I wasn't sure what category to put this in and figured this was as good a choice as any. My question is about shoes with Highland dress. I have circulation problems in my legs, and an ulcer on my right ankle that keeps opening. Regular shoes of any type rub on the ankle making it bleed and drain. So the only shoes I can wear are the clog type with open sides and back which don't rub the ankle. Another problem is with swelling and trying to buy shoes with the left shoe size 10 and the right shoe size 12 is no easy matter.
I guess with daywear, its not much of a problem since they fit in with the casual look. But what about semi or formal wear? What's one supposed to do. I don't know if anyone here has the same problem or knows of someone who does, any suggestions would be of help.
