Let's answer some frequently asked questions:
How does the FLEX-AFO ortho for dropped foot work?
As a result of a neurological injury, such as a stroke or cerebral palsy, there may be weakness or spasticity in the muscles responsible for lifting the foot, resulting in dropped foot. People with dropped foot try to compensate by lifting the hip or bending the knee to relieve the foot without dragging it on the ground. This can lead to significant back or hip problems. Flex AFO is a light and comfortable foot ortho, worn around the ankle and lifting the foot. This provides greater foot clearance from the ground and reduces the risk of tripping and falling while walking.
How do I know if Flex AFO is right for me?
Flex AFO is the ideal solution for people who have:
- Limited lower limb movement.
- Difficulty in dorsiflexion (lifting the front part of the foot up)
- Weakness in the ankle or foot muscles.
- Tendency to trip due to dragging the foot on the ground.
For which conditions can the FLEX-AFO foot ortho help?
Conditions for which Flex-AFO can help include:
- Stroke.
- Brain injury - trauma.
- Multiple sclerosis.
- Cerebral palsy.
- Spinal injuries, such as herniated disc or spinal stenosis.
- Parkinson's disease.
- ALS
- Injuries to the lower leg or foot.
- Susceptibility to tripping due to dragging the foot on the floor.
What are the contraindications?
If you have neuropathy in the affected area, you will need to regularly/frequently check for abrasions, which you may not feel.
What to do if many years have passed since the stroke or injury?
Whether you just had a stroke or other injury causing dropped foot, or it happened many years ago, the FLEX-AFO dropped foot ortho will bring you many benefits.
