    $3 solution. Buy 3 ft bungee cord. Hook one end to belt. Other end to forward shoelace. Adjust length with knot(s). Conceal in pant leg. (Optional). Laceless shoes- wrap Guerrilla Tape around front of shoe.. Hook under tape. It works

    Buddy, I had foot drop at the age off 35ish.. I'm now 65 and it's still the same. There is no cure, it's dead nerves which won't recover. Yes I still work.

    Ok so I just got foot drop for the first time in my life literally today … I didn’t have no surgery or nothing… I was simply playing soccer and I shot with the laces about 5 times… I usually always do this and never has it happened… I was wondering since I have no condition or anything and I didn’t have no disc surgery either, just simply soccer, will this go away?

      Matthew I was shot on June 19 which lead to my foot drop, most doctors I went to told me I would probably never walk again without assistance of some kind or just didn’t say much at all. I was extremely sad, depressed and self conscious myself but as of today around 3 am my foot started to move again hang in there. I seen the most improvement when I was smiling and laughing the whole day instead of thinking about how I may not walk again without assistance just know this isn’t unbeatable. Peace and a speedy recovery for you young man you will overcome this! Also don’t listen to those doctors I had some of the best doctors in the world look at my foot here in Dallas tx and truthfully i don’t think any of these doctors know much about drop foot. Listen to your body more than those doctors. Much luck Matthew.

      @@TheWazperviz well, I can confirm that my situation is getting better. I could notice improvements after a year, nothing before that. That’s why I was so desperate. 18 months passed now and I’m 80% recovered. I could play football now, run etc. The DR said that by month 24 I’ll be 95% recovered. I didn’t had a foot drop, but my nerve was damaged due to sciatica, my whole leg was numb. I couldn’t run, I was limping, excruciating pain. I thought that there is no hope.

      Had a stroke too, foot drop right side. With a stroke, the muscle is functional, but the brain can no longer connect. I find that is you bend your knee up to your chest while laying flat, you can bend the ankle easier. Try it. I'm going to perfect this and progress to where I can bend it with the leg straight.

    Nathan. You are the man I was looking for when I was trying to figure out what it would be like to live with foot drop. I am fortunate that I have strength in my foot still. The choice in front of me is whether to risk foot drop and continue to be able to surf with a waveski or have back surgery to Prevent further nerve damage and foot drop however will make it hard to waveski. I live to wave ski and be in the ocean every day so right now I’m Trying to figure out just how hard it would be to live with Foot drop. Any advice? Like you I ignored the doctors and continued my sports. Like you I I’m trying to figure it out as I go. Thank you again for your kind thoughtful and helpful video.
