GHORTHOUD AFO Foot Drop Brace Splint Ankle Foot Orthosis Walking with Shoes or Sleeping for Stroke Hemiplegia M-Right(Comfort)

Promising Initial Use Could Help Correct Foot Drop
After trying several other AFOs to help with recovery from foot drop, this product design has helped the most in the process of returning to a normal walking routine. I recognize that continuing with recommended physical therapy and strengthening of the affected muscle and nerves is still needed, this AFO fits well and has helped in my recovery.

Watch the video!
For permanent drop foot, this is about the 7th “brace” I’ve tried, including a prescribed carbon fiber brace, and it’s the ONLY one that works to keep my toes up and to keep my ankle from wobbling. It fits easily inside a shoe, and I can leave it on and wear with a slipper at home. Don’t sleep with it. I watched the video many times and couldn’t figure out the first way shown. The second way to wear it is much easier and just as supportive. I am a women’s size 8-1/2, but I wear a size 9 shoe so it fits into shoe. The Medium size worked. You have to play around with the velcro pieces to decide how to use them. I wear a sock under it so it does not irritate. I RECOMMEND IT!

works perfectly
My husband was diagnosed with foot drop. We tried other types of braces to help him be able to work outside on his feet all day and none worked like this one. He loves it. He is a mechanic and needs to be able to walk without tripping over his own feet. It fits perfectly in his shoe. We added a shoe insert to cushion under his foot, so not standing on hard plastic.Has stood up to hours of standing and walking over the last few months of using. I highly recommend this to anyone who has “foot drop”. No more shuffling his feet. He can walk normally again.

Frustrating
I found this product frustrating. It took almost an hour to figure out how it went on the first time. I had to take a pic in order to get it on after that. There are no instructions so good luck. It does the job of keeping your foot flexed very well. It will not fit inside your shoe unless you buy a bigger shoe, so I’m stuck sitting all day until I can take it off. Yesterday I did get it in my shoe, but that was after completely unlacing it, which I’m not doing every day. I wish I had known you weren’t supposed to wear it all day. I wore it for eight hours and had pain around my calf. I had to put a sock between the strap and my skin, as you’ll see in the picture.Bottom line, its uncomfortable, painful and doesnt come with instructions or guidelines. Do not wear all day, start small and increase time by a little bit.But it does its job excellently, so for that, it’s worth it.

Llegó bien y la talla es correcta.

El material es de calidad y cumple perfectamente con su función.

La compre para mi mamá que sufrió u a fractura de tibia y peroné, a pesar que aún tiene la herida abierta t aún así se le hace muy cómoda, con ella puede moverse más segura de posición y ella está muy feliz, ya que también no es pesada.
