thanks for the info. I'm working on this.
Great advice and your doggie loves it also.
I can not left my foot up , also my big toe is numb touching my cafe hurts . After my hip / pelvic surgery I was told I had a drop foot . What can I do to improve my foot
Please can yuo to talk about the hiperextebsion of knee after a stroke. Salulate from Ecuador.
thank you for this. I shall certainly add them into my routine and work my way up the difficulty level 🙂 . I got drop foot through a nerve being pinch in my S1-L5 and hopefully over time my muscle can get stronger!
Ma'am I had an accident a few years back. My left side was paralysed and currently I'm having trouble controlling my feet. When I'm not tensed or not under strain, it can be controlled to an extend. But when I'm nervous or in a crowd I can't control it. When I try to do so it becomes even more difficult. What should I do ma'am?? @Rehab HQ
I have MS and terrible drop foot. I use a walker everywhere I go. I wear shoes with a one inch heel, mostly booties since my ankle is weak. I’ve had Ms since 1997. I’d like to wear tennis shoes, but they “stick” on the ground. I saw something about using duct tape. Can you tell me more? I love your videos
You said something about duct tape on shoe so it doesn’t drag. I can’t find that video. Where do I find it?
❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing
Awww the dog. So cute. Thank you for the video.
I just wondering , I can’t lift my feet up but i can lift toes . So , should i still proceed the treatment/exercise you recommend or should i try other kind of treatment?
I have gbs and foot drop its miserabla
Hi, can this happen out of the blue? I am a jogger and I got foot drop a few days ago. It seems the common denominator is a stroke/ ms, I have no other problems in my body apart from this sudden foot drop thing, my foot is kind of tingley to touch but it's not completely numb and I can move it up a little. Everything online suggests surgery but is there a way that this heals on it's own? I'm able to walk somewhat normal although my foot moves outward in when stepping (my toes don't drag and I can move them).
what do I do if I have 0/5 movement up and to the side to side? Thanks.
IU R sooooo amazing Dr
How long it takes recovery pls tell me
You are a rockstar. So hard to find a neuro therapist. Gave up trying ( after seeing 3 therapists that did more harm) . With ms, we have similar issues as those that had a stroke. You are a godsend to so many. Thank you!
Can a person go from having foot drop to having spasticity from stroke can this happen maybe winter to summer it more prevalent why it is possible or not. Thank you
Love your dog… he’s mimicking you & working out

Hello medam I have cerebral palsy unstable movement in walking please suggest a experience medam
I can do active dorsi flexion while in sitting completely fine (like the second exercise)..i can't do ANY standing exercises – like my affected foot doesn't even lift off the ground..no ankle dorsi flexion at all in standing..why is that? I'm confused. How do i address this issue? Where is the weakness/tightness in standing coming from, as opposed to sitting?
