So where is any evidence about going barefoot vs wearing shoes at all times (house etc) Seriously, I would like to know what is the best thing to do? Seems I hear 50/50 for each.
While healing you need to have support to allow those tears to heal so shoes/slippers (and the sock that keeps your foot/ankle @ 90-ish degrees while you sleep) is critical. After it is healed, with stretching and such I have found normal barefoot is fine around the house/yard/boat. If you run/hike though I suggest insoles and good support.
