Why do i have drop foot in both legs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many possible causes: Foot drop can be caused by a number of different reasons from systemic to traumatic and a complete answer to this can not be given without a thorough history and examination. Schedule an appointment with someone who specializes in the extremities or in neurology.
