Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms
Foot Drop
Foot drop is the name given to a condition which affects walking where there is a difficulty or failure to properly lift the toe of the foot.
This results in what is sometimes referred to as 'slapping gait', where the toe gets dragged rather than lifted, and 'slaps' down when walking.
People with foot drop may drag the toe of their shoe on the ground or may only walk on the heel of the affected foot. This can result in scuffing of the toe of the shoe on the affected side.
Foot drop is not a disease in its own right. Rather, it is an indicator of an underlying condition such as multiple sclerosis although other conditions or disorders may cause it to occur.
