A member asked:
I have a foot drop for quiet sometime now and its getting worse day by day. how this can be treated ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Get evaluation: There are many causes of foot drop- it is important that you are evaluated as soon as possible to determine the cause. Permanent damage to a nerve can occur if it is not taken care of. If you are left with foot drop, there are a variety of braces that can get you back to high level function. A physiatrist can prescribe one for you.
