A lot of people with spinal cord injury/myelopathy have foot drop. Mine is fairly minor so I do not wear a brace. There are good hinged braces available for people with foot drop — occupational or physical therapists could help you with this.

Hello @gba, I moved your message to the "Thigh weakness/foot drop after spine surgery" discussion, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/thigh-weaknessfoot-drop-after-spine-surgery/.

@donnadrury shared her experience with you. I'd also like you to meet @dadcue and @luamiller who have also shared their foot drop experience in this discussion.

@gba, could you share a bit more about your foot drop? If you are comfortable, what brought on your foot drop and how are you currently coping?
