Fixing Drop foot. Absolute BEST Option When It Wont Get Better

[@DvLnDsGyZ]

Multiple sclerosis is also one of the causes of foot drop. It sucks 😔

[@kimladd5100]

Yes, me, too.

yup...gonna look at saebo

yep, me too

[@annabrown7302]

HOW IS BOB DOING ,GOOD I HOPE WE MISS HIM❤

[@Wysiwyg43]

My foot drop will NEVER get better because of MS. I HATED the Medicare issued AFO brace because not only did the brace cause discomfort, I was limited to what shoes I could wear (usually two sizes larger than my true size and in wide width to accommodate the AFO). I finally saved enough cash to buy the Saebo brace since watching this video last year. Night and day for comparison. My gait is the same BUT without the bulkiness. And shoes that are my size! It felt weird at first, however, my leg and foot were finally comfortable. Even though I still use a cane, I appreciate Bob and Brad for showing something I never knew existed. PEACE

Nice to hear it helped. I may try- i hate these white afo's, the saebo look very cumbersome though- I hope they come in white.

[@leaveittolefty]

i'd like this ratcheting contraption but i am unable to reach down AND pull foot up to put it on😕

[@md-hj5nd]

I had a stroke on February 17, 2022. I have used the Saebo brace on my left foot for approximately two months. You may need assistance with the initial setup, but it is easy to put on. This brace works best for someone with an active lifestyle and you don't have balancing issues. It feels more natural because nothing is inserted inside your shoe. If you have issues with your ankle rolling in or out, I would recommend a more stable AFO like the plastic brace in the video. I also have a carbon fiber AFO that I alternate with my Sabeo brace. The only issue I have with my Saebo brace is that the brace will slide down my ankle with my sock throughout my day because I have skinny ankles. The strings that pulls my toes up will also loosen when the brace slides down my ankle. Therefore, I have to tightened it repeatedly to raise my toes enough to clear the ground when I walk.

I have foot drop due to brain surgery. Gonna try find out more about this

Yes because you might be able to reverse it. Not always but good luck. I've had footdrop since I was 14 I'm 32 now. I like this device here.

Not a good title for this show It gave me false hope.

[@cheekysaver]

Welander distal myopathy is also a source of foot drop. Usually you see the hands curling in first tho. Most often the first sign is not being able to erect your middle finger straight. My dad became symptomatic 40 years ago at 37. (Only in my families world can you get a rare disease you can't even flip the bird at. LOL )

[@sportscarsavvy]

Hey you Guys, I had complete foot drop after I played basketball. It was like it was completely paralyzed. The movement slowly came back after a few hours of paralysis. It has happens twice now in the same foot. What should I do?

[@sportscarsavvy]

Please reply

[@sportscarsavvy]

Also I’m 17 and have not had any diseases that I know of

[@SharonCullenArt]

I’m an RN who didn’t realize I had loss of feeling in my foot or foot drop until laying in bed and realized I couldn’t dorsiflex my foot. We don’t know why I have it. I did have L4-5 surgery last fall but had a CT and they say no impingement. No stroke, it’s weird. But I had a hip injury (torn labrum, torn gluteus medius and minimus and a horrible bursitis) and I rolled my ankle anf\d fractured it. So I was in a boot. Then I fell two more times thinking it was the hip until I realized I was stubbing my toe, and the other day I ended up with a spiral fracture in my 5th metatarsal. I’m still trying to figure it out, and have kegs scheduled but I’m only 60 and very bummed that I may have to live with this forever. Also have a boot on each leg for fractures because of it! Darn. 💩

I have MS and have drop foot. Even though I have flex in my ankle, I can’t lift my toes when walking which cause me to stumble and trip. I tried the Stable Step and it hurts my angle. I did pay a lot of money for a Walk Aid device but find the electric shock it gives that helps lift my toes can be uncomfortable. The Smart Step brace works the best so far.

[@beverlyschweiss3175]

Is the one they show the smart step?

[@RachelJane101]

A custom AFO works so much better and is often covered by insurance.

[@aquamarine9568]

I think this might be why i fall all the time. Can the muscle be worked somehow to strengthen it so you do not need a brace?

[@puppydog12000]

try walking when you can as much as possible maybe a treadmill or a gym where you can go the slowest speed if not try the bicycle the recumbment bike it will help your muscles

[@Anna-tc6rz]

Maybe, it depends on what the problem is. If you can talk to your dr about physical therapy. If not I've been using resistance bands to help strengthen the muscles there. I still have to use one for work or whenever I'm going to be walking long time but I dont for shorter trips anymore. I have a degenerative nerve disorder so eventually I'll have to use them all the time (basically wont be able to tell my foot to lift) but strengthen them as much as possible should delay it

I recently had a stroke at 36 and suffer from foot drop I had an AFO made, but it is extremely hard to get in my shoe because of how bulky it is basically I just wanted to thank you for introducing this. I believe it will be a game changer for me. I like that you can wear any pair of sneakers and I don’t have to take over 30 minutes and require assistance to put it on. What do you recommend for wearing when you don’t have shoes on? My toes constantly scraping the ground or my foot gets caught on carpets or anything anything with a lip.

I definitely have improved a TON over time (Praise God!), but I can only imagine how much better it would be if I had been disciplined. I'm here because I want to get back into better habits with it.

I'm 28 and its been 3 months, I have flaccid foot drop. Mine was caused by being on ventilator in a coma for 21 days. I had ammonia kidney dialysis fluid sucked out of my lungs 2 blood transfusion temporarily paralized. Ect. Anyways if its nerve damage, you need to be on heavy duty vitamins and keep up with your pt. My pts told me being on these vitamins restores 1/8th of and inch in nerve growth a day. And over the course of months to years its significant. Its never over especially if you're young.

I had Guillain Barre disease 3 years ago. It compromised both my legs and arms and hands. For my legs I had been wearing the white braces in different shapes; from the really thick ones to the more thin and flexible model. In fact, probably by the end of this week I will be getting a new model, similar to one called Comfit AFO , made by a swedish firm called Embreis. Mine is being made of fiberglass. We hope it's going to come up as thin and also as flexible as if it were made out of carbon fiber. My goal is to be able to wear it everyday with my normal footware and be able to walk and even drive my car with them on. Normally at home or work I don't require them. But when it comes to go out on the street and walk long distances I definitely require them. I will let you know if they work for me. Very nice instructive videos. I appreciate it then a lot.

[@oroblanco4004]

Wow. This is awesome. I have had foot drop for almost 3 decades, practically my normal gait since I got used to it. I had a surgery for it wen i was 5 or 6yo. I do not know if i was born with it or not bc no one present when I was born is still living in a human body so I cant even get a clear explanation, just speculations from those who saw me growin up. So as a close to 40yo, can the saebostep be of help ? I have never controlled my toes on my affected foot in this life . And I feel stiffness when I walk or when I lie down to sleep or practically anything that has to put the foot to action. Is there any help I can get. If I am sober and its bedtime, it takes upto 5 hours to catch the first glimse of dizziness due to the tensions in my affected foot. The nightime situation in particular is really what worries me, for it keeps me up till early morning and when I have lost all energy then it softens, then i can catch a 2-3 hrs sleep which usually starts from around 6:30 in the morning. Any suggestion or questions will be welcome

I ride my bike an hour a day, do general yoga exercises, persist with calf raises, and have modified my arch suppirts with stick on neoprene. For some reason, walking in my ankle boots with a liw heel feels very stable. Your big toe is your push off for the end of your step, so let yoyr step be short if that is easier. I have a cane I use to keep my body aligned, as the twist your body will try to do is hard on the back. I also used the toe lifting brace and it felt great!!

Thank you for all you do for those with foot drop issues. Starting about a year ago, I started having moderate foot drop on my left side and sever foot drop on my right side. There was no particular event that brought this on. The neurosurgeon I saw suggested fusion surgery for L4-L5 but didn't really convince me that it would solve the problem. I did have a microdiscectomy in the same spot in 2003. Anyhow, beside the usual problem, my balance is terrible and I find I need a walker most of the time to keep myself from falling. If I could solve the balance issue or improve it substantially, I think it would be very helpful in improving the quality of my life. Do you have any suggestions focused on the balance issue?

I'm actually just experiencing this for over a month. I get laughed a lot because of how I walk now

[@puppydog12000]

welcome to the club

[@kenp6219]

Dont worry bout the laughs. I'm 57 and understand that if (they) cry,it affects us all. But if they laugh,then at least they're happy. I dont take it personally. I dont see it as "at my expense", because i do not give anyone power of authority over my spirit. If you begin to just smile back at them,then you will notice those that are good and bad that laugh. The bad ones will stand out like a sore thumb because they laugh to get a rush out of our (bad) reaction to their laughing at us,then figure out they cant upset us anymore, and show power of authority over us,as they get mad and go find someone else to try to put down. The good ones will stop laughing after that because they are too young to know they are being mislead by an idiot that idolizes hatred. 😊

People should not laugh at you but if they do, try not to listen to them :) Here is a video series that might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5e7faCrgduWrZo

How is it now?

[@dallie7789]

I realize that this is an older video but I am looking for some clarification if someone could just please answer my question. In the video are you saying that if your heel does Not hit the floor and is consistently raised that this brace can not be used? Thank you in advance for your clarification

[@Donnamg100]

Check out Dr Tobias on Rehab HQ. She has a great vid on afos and discusses footdrop vs spasticity..

I developed left foot drop following a bilateral fasciotomy on my left calf after having a heart probe inserted in the left groin and developing compartment syndrome . The post-op care was seriously screwed up. Rehab did not fully correct the problem, and my gait has been off for the past 15 years. I have the pelvic lift gait typical of foot drop sufferers. I don't use any prosthetics and I manage without a cane. However, I can't hurry up, jump or run. I am 71 now, so, not likely to regain any losses.

Hi Guys!! Help! Just got the SaeboStep and for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to secure that TEENY TINY TEENY eyelet screw - NO bolts included, just a washier - made by and for miniature people who have Eagle like eyesight. And voila! A miniature Allen wrench made by the masochists from Ikea also included. PLEASE, HOW DID YOU SECURE IT? Please Please make a short video on how to do that. Thank you so much. You videos are wonderful and I would so appreciate your help - I have bad Foot Drop and I need that Saebo Step! 🥰🥰🥰 I am a subscriber. Thanks for everything.

[@josephporter391]

Hi, I had a stroke twelve years ago that left me with foot drop in my left foot...I have not tried any of the braces, etc. but this looks promising. However I am contemplating the perispinal etanercept procedure, just liquid embrel injected in the base of the spine while the head is inverted. The Mayo clinic is one of but a few clinics that administer this procedure, the other being the two physicians who patented the procedure and thus too costly for most over the seven year patented period. My question is has anyone had the procedure and did it work, usually within minutes of the injection.

[@karinselevanl.m.t.6789]

Can you create a series for elementary kids? For example one for foot pain.....it could be a 5 min. session, maybe you want to each wear something special for the ocassion i.e. superman and ninja for example? so a kid can do it with you?

[@paulf3847]

I have Chartoc foot on my left foot. What brace is best for bracing it? Also i has been a month after it was Diagnosed, my foot feels like its not attached to my foot. Also I have Neuropathy.

[@rehabhqofficial]

Check out this video. It is the first video in a 2 part series kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5e7faCrgduWrZo

[@joyceannetesta701]

I have Charcot Marie Tooth also- CMT- you can try the plastic custom Afo's or the metal ones At a prosthetic and Orthotics facility. They fit you and explain what would work. Good luck

[@cindycaulder7885]

I was in a car accident Dec. 9th 2021 and had mini strokes , also broke hip and pelvis. I have foot drop and I have no feeling in my hip and thigh and calf and ankle. I have an AFO and it's very uncomfortable. My problem is without that brace under my foot my toes curl under in my shoe. Has anyone else have this problem? Dr seems to think mine is permanent.

[@maryleemccown8889]

I have foot drop on my left foot as a result from polio. I noticed on Amazon they have several similar foot braces to the Saebo which are much less expensive. I wonder if they are as effective.

[@jessicarampley5157]

Hello! I was in a coma for 4 weeks and bedridden for 8 months..with a year of physical therapy I was able to get back on my feet..I still have drop foot in my left foot..even after 3-4 years of physical therapy. Do y’all think that these exercises can repair my drop foot or is there possible permanent nerve damage?

[@tracyj1117]

Bless you I hope it gets better I have profound foot drop spasticity they call it I have barely no movement what's so ever for 12 years now ..try and get a carbon fibre brace they are so light weight ..and fit better into shoes ..and brilliant with sketchers ..sometimes we just have to make the best of what we have ...but I wish you better keep doing exercises with elastic ..it will stop muscles waste to much and remember nerves heal at a very slow pace .. x

I have “flop foot” where I can’t control the deceleration of my dorsiflexion when I walk. The result is the ball of my foot slaps down. Now the ball of my foot is always swollen. I addition my big toe is overcompensating to help with the acceleration of dorsiflexion, resulting in a sore under the toenail of my big foot. I tried an afo device but it does not help with the deceleration phase. Do you know of any devise that I could try to alleviate some of my problems.

[@ZakKohler]

Found video doing KT tape for foot drop kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXTPXnl-n86HiZo after searching "KT tape dorsiflexion" which I was prompted to search after watching your video about dorsiflexion nighttime brace for plantar fasciitis. It doesn't get the toe but man easy. It's the exact opposite of the normal taping that you recommend for PF but makes way more sense to me.

[@411STRYKERT1]

I have foot drop right now from a sciatic nerve pinch. Should this go away when my sciatica clears up

[@dthomp1]

411STRYKERT1 - have you found anything promising? I have the same issue, foot-drop from sciatica. I’ve been walking and stretching and hoping that one day it will miraculously return to normal. Has not yet, now considering phys therapy.

[@411STRYKERT1]

dthomp1 I've tried a couple of things I looked up on the net but I havent seen any progress. Right now I've been stretching the lower back and ham strings. I'm still having a little pain in my lower back and on the side of my leg between my knee and ankle. I can't believe this takes so long to heal.

[@dthomp1]

411STRYKERT1 yep I’ve been doing the same. Frustrating. I have partial control (able to move my left foot up and down) but it still drops when I walk. Mine went from sciatic nerve (left side), then the peroneal nerve (knee to ankle), then to the pudendal nerve (groin), all have improved except the foot.

[@411STRYKERT1]

dthomp1 sounds like we have the exact same problem. If I run across anything that works I will bit you up.

[@ashleesalazar4016]

Hi guys, I have foot drop from a similar situation. I actually herniated a disc in my lower back and that put so much pressure on my sciatic nerve that my foot went numb as well as the side of my leg. I recently had spine surgery called a microdicectomy and I still haven’t had any luck with my foot drop. Hoping it will get better over time!

[@mariannemay2669]

I have foot drop after stroke in 2015 but I get back pain while walking will this help too? Marianne

[@timojepsen2715]

I stopped using my orthotic, and began to experience knee pain because leg would flex too far backwards...will this deviice keep the leg from flexing backwards?

[@6atlantis]

Does anyone have suggestions for good men’s sneakers for people with drop foot(and a bad knee)? They are for a 65-year-old man so hopefully steal some style and fashion along with the function. Thanks in advance

[@jameslee2126]

Way better than the afo i got.my afo Hurt and limited how much i could strengthen my leg and ankle. The saebo really increased my walking distance.

[@beattydave]

Attacked by Polio in 1956 as a 6 year old boy. Surgery done to redirect tendons to pull foot up…. But resulted in stunting of foot growth.

[@Loaf_the_III]

I just kicked football and at one point i kicked the ball on the foots nerve right in the curve of the foot. Pls jus tell me that i can fix this

[@stacygregory81]

I took a nap and woke up .. I'm 40 years old and nothing was wrong after I left work or laid down.. but now I can't raise my toes or foot upwards towards my body and if I don't raise my leg high I fall walking! I never heard of this but sure am now!

[@badolkhondoker5149]

I'm interested but how to clacekt please help this is my big big Require I'm Bangladeshi

[@ericrueter1705]

I think most people that watch this buy it. But why is it for when it doesn't get better? I had a stroke but I'm 25 so they told me it should recover 100%.

[@ducklady]

I have to wear mine with an ankle brace cos when my foot pronates or supinates (i think theyre th right words) my fibula head pops but that thing has helped me have my first not too wobbly walk in ages. Now i just need to build my muscle back up and hopefully not have sciatic pain for life

[@yolandapappillion7542]

Hello I have MS which is causing foot drop. How much does this device cost?? Also does medicare cover it??

[@puppydog12000]

oh I hate braces Ive got all the braces in the world for my back and neck and shoulders and paid to much money for them Ive had my brain pretty much tore apart then thrown out the back of the truck and then a couple more head injuries bucked off a horse head first and I thought my feet and legs were doing good but I do know this I have not been able to run upstairs or down stairs ever since 1992. when I was 16

[@tracyj1117]

Thank you for sharing ...I have the worst foot drop I have had all three splints ...the cuff one don't help your so right if you have little movement 12 years after my foot drop developed I now have a carbon fibre splint which gives a bit more stability for me ..but could you tell me as you seem well informed...I still catch my foot .and also why do some people lose there balance with foot drop my one developed from a disc that broke and herniated and came out ..and I had decompression surgery to realise the pressure and remove the broken disc....but I lose my balance alot always going to the left side same side as foot drop ...any suggestions why this happens

[@OmarFaruk-lp7pq]

Please tell me where should I go to buy this kid of brace in Dubai, Al quoz.
