Socks

I made a really stupid decision to wear ankle-length athletic socks for the first 3 days after getting my boot. They were just the easiest socks I had to get over my foot that would also absorb moisture, but now I'm worried I affected my achilles healing by having the sock cuffs press around the area. (Should mention I'm non-op)

I'm switching now to knee length socks but should I be worried about having done any damage or delay to my achilles?

Starting Weight-Bearing- Boot, Non-Op

Hi all,

I fully ruptured my left achilles 4 days ago and was put in a boot 2 days ago. I don't know whether I should be completely non-weight bearing or start weight-bearing within the first 2 weeks. Would greatly any and all input!
