Foot Drop refers to the inability to dorsiflex (lift) the toes or foot. Foot drop, also known as drop-foot, can be a temporary or permanent condition. The condition can be dependent upon the extent of paralysis or muscle weakness that is present. Occurring in either one foot or both feet, foot drop can have many causes such as common fibular nerve damage, sciatic nerve damage, paralysis of muscles in the anterior portion of the lower legs, abnormal anatomy, muscle or spinal cord trauma, toxins or disease.
Foot Drop Splint is a medical term for difficulty lifting the foot at the ankle. This is a condition caused by weakness or paralysis of the muscles involved in flexing the ankle and toes, which causes a person to drag the toe of the shoe on the ground or slap the foot on the floor while walking. Foot Drop is a neuromuscular disorder and can be a symptom of nerve compression or a low back injury such as disc herniation or as a result of Multiple Sclerosis or Parkinson’s Disease.
Physiotherapists can help both temporary and permanent foot drop. The treatment used will depend on the underlying cause. If the cause can be diagnosed and is successfully treated, Foot Drop may improve or even disappear.
