A member asked:

Is first ray drop of the foot >likely due to nerve irritation behind medial maleolus, medial knee, shin, lateral hip, spine or brain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Foot drop: The most common cause of a foot drop is either peroneal neuropathy or L5 radiculopathy. Usually an EMG can discern the difference. I would see your neurologist for further workup. Good luck and well wishes.
