KX2 Foot Drop Brace FAQ

What is Foot Drop?

Foot drop, sometimes called “drop foot,” is the inability to lift the front part of the foot causing the toes to drag while walking. People with foot drop may compensate by lifting their knee higher than normal or swinging their leg in an arc. Foot drop stems from weakness or paralysis of the muscles that lift the foot and may involve one or both feet.

Foot Drop is Not a Disease

As a symptom of an underlying problem, foot drop is not a disease and can be temporary or permanent.

What Causes Foot Drop?

As a symptom of an underlying problem, foot drop is not a disease and can be temporary or permanent. Causes of foot drop include nerve injury in the leg or back, peripheral neuropathies, and brain or spinal disorders.

Nerve Injury

Commonly, foot drop is caused by an injury to the peroneal nerve or the lumbar nerve roots. Located close to the skin surface, the peroneal nerve wraps from the back of the knee to the front of the shin. The lumbar nerve roots in the back also supply the muscles that lift the foot.

  • Peroneal nerve injury
    • Pressure injury – prolonged sitting in a cross-legged or squatting position
    • Knee injury
    • Diabetes
    • Hip or knee replacement surgery
  • Lumbar nerve root injury:
    • Ruptured discs and calcium deposits in nerve openings
    • Back surgery
    • Inflammation of the nerve roots

Peripheral Neuropathies

Diabetic neuropathy, Charcot Marie Tooth hereditary neuropathies, and other less frequent neuropathies can cause foot drop in both feet.

Brain and Spinal Disorders

Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Cerebral Palsy can damage the central nerves that control foot lift muscles with resulting foot drop along with other leg muscle weakness.

How do KX2 Devices increase mobility?

KX2 Devices give the user the opportunity to reclaim the simple act of walking and improve their mobility. Using Flexible Foot Lift technology, the KX2 Device can offer increased stability and control of the lower limbs. This aids in preventing “foot drop” caused by muscle weakness, reducing the risk of trips and falls. The advanced engineering and ergonomic design allow users with foot drop to navigate their environment more safely and securely, ultimately providing the necessary elements for improved overall mobility.

Who needs medical mobility devices & equipment?

Medical mobility devices and equipment are crucial to helping those living with disabilities, physical impairments, or restricted mobility manage their day-to-day lives. From children as young as toddlers to the elderly, these tools can help people of any age maintain independence throughout the course of their life. Mobility aids such as wheelchairs, crutches, motorized scooters, stairlifts, and transfer boards can make it possible for people with mobility challenges to go about their daily activities with confidence, free from the stress of not feeling in control of their bodies or environment.
