    : : Hello there. my Question is what is foot drop syndrome, what causes it, and how is it treated, and what can be done to speed up the healing process? My mom started out with a footdrop,was given a brace to put in her right shoe 1year ago..NOw the other foot has dropped..making it hard for her to get around. The last two months she’s pretty much in the wheel chair. She was diagnoised with ALs. now they are not sure she even have that. She had all kind of test done..been to multiple doctors..no one seems to know what her problem is.All I know is last year in April is when I noticed her foot dragging, but she was still able to get around. Now if she took ten steps, she’s tired very tired..She’s seen neurologists ..had mri’s, emg. blood and urine..they say she has some nerve damage…With the last Dr. she’s seen He’s really not sure what’s wrong..
