My husband has severe foot drop on his left and early signs on his right. His feet hurt, especially after being on them for any length of time, and especially after walking. Which makes perfect sense with all the slapping that his feet do on the floor. The problem being that when he wears shoes or extra support, he finds himself tripping more. Which again, makes sense considering the foot drop.
So at night, I rub his feet to try to provide a little relief for him. I am also going to give him a pedicure to see if that helps relieve some of the pain.
Any other suggestions or something I am missing? He is being fitted for his AFO tomorrow, but am not sure how much that will help. I am not familiar with them at all.
I appreciate any help or ideas.
Love and light
