I just caught up on the replies (had only read the first page before I initially posted), and I agree with KDCat. Definitely, definitely, definitely do not wear heels if you might tear a ligament. This is coming from someone who admittedly wore shoes that caused her tendon pain while she was dealing with tendonitis in her foot. Eventually I just wore comfortable shoes because I realized it wasn't worth it to be in pain. A torn ligament is not just painful, it can be very serious, and I would not wear heels if that is what you're risking.

If wedges are comfortable for you and you're not going to risk tearing your ligament, I would recommend wearing wedges to preference. If that's not the case, then look for something else, but do not wear shoes that you're going to risk seriously injuring yourself with.

This are great links!

This shoe in particular caught my eye. If it can fit your custom orthotic, it seems like it could be a cute and comfortable choice.
