Foot Drop Splint

Foot drop, also known as "drop foot," occurs when a person is unable to lift the front part of their foot, causing it to drag along the ground while walking. This condition can affect one foot or both simultaneously and can occur at any age. Foot drop may be temporary or permanent and is typically a symptom of an underlying disease rather than a standalone condition.
