I am in my last semester of nursing school and I am fairly certain I have a stress fracture in my ankle. I previously broke the same ankle two years ago and wore a walking boot at the time. The walking boot relieves my pain from the current injury but my school told me that I am not allowed to wear this at clinicals because (supposedly) the hospital won't let me. Is there any recourse I have to be allowed to wear the boot? I can suffer through without it but that's only worsening the condition, putting me in more pain (making me more of a liability) and prolonging the time it will take to heal.
Thanks
