We are not sure about the cause for foot drop. My mother observed this three months back . She fell down two three times , this cause no injury and she is not sure wthether this problem started by that or not.

Our location is Kurukshetra( Haryana).

Get investigated

Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

The treatment depends on the cause.

Hence, I suggest you to get the condition investigated with tests like foot drop is a consequence of nerve damage, in this case earlier you intervene the better it is.
