What actually happens when drop foot occurs due to nerve impingement.
I would like to know of treatments to correct this problem and what is the recovery expected?

    P. S. My mother just came out of the hospital with drop foot. They say it may get better or worse—they are not sure. Are there any methods available to help the situation.Sharon Dwyer

    I have to have spinal surgery on a herniated disc and have been told I may suffer from drop foot after – how will this effect me?

    Can improper placement of the legs and feet during extensive surgery result in drop foot?

    my son who is now 32 has this condition. Although it has improved slightly over the past 4 years he is upset by always having to wear his brace. Is there hope that he will ever fully recover?
