Foot drop? Try this AFO alternative!

Foot drop, anyone 🦶🏻?? This is one of my favorite ankle braces that was designed to help reduce drop foot.

👉🏼 It’s called the Dictus Band!

There’s 3 major pieces:
• ankle strap
• thick rubber band
• metal prongs

The prongs will fit in the islets of any sneakers 👟 and when it’s all put together, it helps lift your toes up, to reduce #footdrop 👊🏻

thank you for posting these videos. i was diagnosed with MS before i should have, and then under went testing to try to prove my diagnosis. after a year it was inconclusive. i was instructed to proceed with more painful and expensive testing ‘if i felt it was necessary’ but i should come back if i experience ‘more’.

after a lumbar puncture and other difficult procedures, i don’t know where to go. thank you so much for providing me with some information on how to continue to live 💕

I purchased the saebo step brace a few years back. It has definitely helped me: it’s a little pricey but if it stops m from falling, it’s money well spent 👍🏽

The AFO I just learned about 3 months ago
It definitely helps I have one that I sleep in and the other for when I go out

I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis last year and I have a drop foot wet and got fitted for a leg brace AF o but I like this alternative better

Hello doctor does one need to wear this forever or this just has to be used as an exercise to fix foot drop and then discontinue. My foot drop is just 3 months old, what i mean by 3 months old is i had limb lengthening surgery 3 months before and this foot drop has started after the surgery

I’ve been wearing this for foot drop, which has helped somewhat, but I’m starting to have weakness on my other ankle(non foot drop ankle) since wearing this. Have you heard of this happening, and do you have any suggestions? Thanks so much!

Hey Dr. Would you chose those over a traditional Swedish AFO for a patient with numerological impairments leading to drop foot

[amandaliddy]

Thank you Dr Gretchen for sharing this. That brand appears to have limited availability here in the US, and is expensive. Is there a reason you are suggesting this brand over similar products that on Amazon are much more affordable and well-reviewed? Thanks!
