AFO & Drop Foot Splint

An AFO & Drop Foot Splint is a custom-fabricated brace that stabilizes the ankle and foot to correct foot drop and improve walking safety. By maintaining the foot at a 90-degree angle, it prevents toes from dragging during the swing phase of gait, thereby preventing trips and falls. Essential for patients with neurological conditions (stroke, MS, cerebral palsy), peripheral nerve injuries, or post-surgical instability, it is a prescription device meticulously crafted by an orthotist to provide specific levels of support, flexibility, and control. Daily skin checks and proper footwear are imperative for safe and effective long-term use.
