What Is A Good Knee Brace

A MyMSTeam Member asked a question 💭
Oblong, IL

It was so nice out today that I decided to walk about a quarter of a mile. My knee started giving out and the drop foot started to
become a problem before the walk was finished. Is there a good knee brace that would keep my knee from giving out?

I got my PCP to refer me to someone who makes knee braces for bad knees. Covered by insurance. Makes walking distances much easier.

Get an appointment with a foot and leg brace specialist. They will take a cast of your leg and foot and build you a brace that will deal with your specific level of foot drop. There is also an electrical version out there that is also good. Get more information from your MS society.
