Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am dr akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. It is sad to read that there is a foot drop in both lower limbs but what is the cause for it and was any treatment taken for it because suddenly foot drop does not happen in one day. I can only think of afo to support ankle and prevent equinus deformity. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance. Thanks & regards dr akshay kumar saxena consultant orthopaedics fortis hospital, new delhi
