Guest guest Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Hi everybody, just now I hv become member of yr group and I am posting my problem to all of u if u can help me. About 3 years back I have an attack of nervous breakdown resulting in right side footdrop. At that time my MRI revealed Disc herniation at L3 L4 left side with likely impingenment upon the existing nerve roots. That time I felt excruciating pain in my back and both buttock and I couldn't stand up straight anymore. This went away after 2 days but then I felt pain down my right leg all the way down into my foot. The pain strated from buttocks and goes to right foot. I can walk on my heels and can tiptoe, but walking on my toes was more difficult with my right foot ie can walk but with decided limp. There was drop of foot but there was burning pain ,tingling ,numbness & inability to sense vibration. From that day I am taking physical therapy called electrical muscle stimulator / I.F.T. and hot dip waxing to maintain muscle tone of right foot. Since recovery is taking longer time I request your goodself as which type of Therapy is to be performed to evaluate nerve. As thru physiotherapy footdrop has been heeled and there is no drop of foot but presently there is heaviness / stiffness on my right foot Smile regards TEJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
