There can be many reasons for the foot drop. Some easily identified and some not.
I have foot drop on both feet. I've seen an army of doctors and specialists, and had every test imaginable....still no diagnosis.

I had severe foot drop suddenly after prolonged kneeling and sitting on leg for hours(floor instalation)
Initialy i had not lift my foot even one mm
After 10 days i restored full range of motion but i noticed there is not full power like before, when i put weights around 10 kg's on foot and try to lift i only can do few reps
Will my muscle power restore fully if i keep exercise?
Now is 2 weeks when problem started, , range is there but power is not fully restored.
