Default Spring loaded footboards?

I just had knee surgery two monthes ago,and the doctor said the reason it keeps swelling up is because of the vibration when I ride my Road King.Does anyone know of footboards that have springs underneath the rubber to help deaden the vibration?I was told these exist,but no one knows where to get them.
