    Thank you for the exercises! I have gotten foot drop for some reason after I went bowling last week and it felt scary, I couldn’t even move or at least lift my foot up thinking that I needed surgery.. but after watching your video and following those exercises, my leg muscles were gradually improving until the very day I am writing this, my leg and foot are all good now, you just earned a subscriber! Thank you once again Dr. Scott.

      Hi there, I currently have foot drop and was wondering how long yours lasted and if you have made a full recovery?

    Thank you so much! 8 months ago i got diagnosed with metastatic breastcancer. My situation was zo bad I would die in a few weeks, but i survived and i am clean. I still needed radiotherapy and extra chemo because the medics don't understand what is happening. It is a miracle. During radiotherapy i got dropfoot. Next week the hospital will help me but i am happy to get started already. So thank you very much for uploading.

    Thank you very much for your exercises. It starts with me with sciatica and later I felt foot drop at right leg. But it was not very severe , I can walk but I can't put my ankle first as my foot drop. I wrap my foot's fingers part with the 4 inches wide long strap, pull up and walk to put the ankle first and go on for 15 minutes. It feels little better, but I will put your all exercises in too. Thanks lot.

      In the meantime, you might benefit from the SaeboStep. It's one of our most popular products and would really help you during your recovery phase until you have the full ability to control your ankle. Check it out in our RUclips or on our website (www.saebo.com/shop/saebostep/). - Dr Scott

    Hi Dr Scott, will regular use of kinesiology taping also help with better dorsiflexion movement into habbit? Any limitations or side effects of using it?

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  3 года назад

      Use of kinesiotaping is one way to assist with proper positioning of a body part, but depending on how it is applied may or may not have the benefits you want. I don't know of any adverse reactions to kinesiotaping unless someone has an allergic reaction to the adhesive or the tape is pulled too tight causing skin irritation or muscle soreness. - Dr Scott

    Hello sir, I have a question. Are these exercises as much as effective for someone who is born with footdrop condition to both feet?
    Thank you for the reply

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  3 года назад +2

      Being born with foot drop does not mean that someone cannot make recovery or overcome some of the symptoms via use of assistive devices like our SaeboStep. You would need to consult a health professional and have proper tests completed to see if you can or cannot recover. I am always optimistic until proven otherwise. I wish you the best of luck in your journey. - Dr Scott

    How many times a day should I do each exercise and for how many reps?

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  2 года назад +2

      Always try to exercise the affected limb for 30-60 minutes a day!

    Hey Doctor, I was having some problems and when I googled my symptoms I found out it was foot drop. But I was totally fine few months ago. Does foot drop occur itself or is it something else??

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  2 года назад

      Most commonly, foot drop is caused by an injury to the peroneal nerve but can also be from muscle disorders and brain or spinal disorders. Learn more here www.saebo.com/foot-drop/

    Hai sir
    I have foot drop more that 5 years now
    There is any hope change my foot drop ( these is happened by accident) please help me sir

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  3 года назад

      I like to use our biofeedback program on our Saebo MyoTrac Infiniti to measure electrical signals to muscles that haven't been used in a while. You will need to seek a trained therapist or a neurologist to see if you have electrical signals to and from your foot and brain. If the connection is there, even weak, you can begin rehab and make gains. I wish you the best of luck. - Dr. Scott

    Hi sir i think i have foot drop in both toes sir please reply me that my assumption is right or wrong

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  3 года назад

      You could easily have that issue, however, since I'm unable to legally or physically see your for an examination outside the state that I am licensed, I cannot give you a definitive answer. What I suggest is that you find a local health professional and have them examine your foot for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Good luck! - Dr Scott

    Can we do cycling in foot drops

    • @SaeboInc
      @SaeboInc  3 года назад

      Yes, however, you will need to watch how it affects the rest of your leg the first few times as you may compensate with muscles not usually used causing soreness. You also need to safely try this out and learn how to pedal with foot drop before going on a bike ride. I recommend having someone with you when you are learning. Best of luck! - Dr Scott
