In this episode of The MSing Link Podcast, I delve into the vital topic of foot drop, a common issue faced by individuals with multiple sclerosis. As a seasoned physical therapist, I highlight the importance of recognizing the signs of foot drop, such as toe catching, shoe scuffing, and modified walking patterns that could impact mobility.
