Did you mean: walking boot skin irritation
If the skin gets red or sore around the edge of the boot, you may pad the edges with a soft material, such as moleskin. Or you can use tape to cover the edges. If you're allowed to take your boot off, be sure your skin is dry before you put the boot back on. Be careful not to put the boot on too tightly.
