Thanks for the new exercises, it is always worth trying to fix the situation. I always tried to walk as much as I could, even though it was very irregular because I compensated a lot of movement. I slowly realized irregularities and corrected with the help of Tara's tips. It is a long and painstaking job, because the changes are small but the results confirm that it makes sense to follow the recommendations of an experienced PT, so thank you Tara again and a pleasant week.
As usual, I found this video so very useful in providing useful exercises for my balance. I believe you can never do too many balance exercises whether it's because of a stroke or another issue or just age. Thank you Dr. Tobias for your time that you've devoted to us. Have a great week.
I wish I could like this video a hundred times. They seem like such simple excercises but are really difficult when this has happened to you and yet... are overlooked in physio. Thank you.
I think you’re amazing. So impressed with the volume and quality of your work. So good for me. I had a stroke a couple of months ago. And I have developed a limp that the doctor and pt don’t think it’s from the stroke. Seems odd to me. Stroke workup in progress. Followup mri in a month or so. As a librarian I’m good at info but confess I wish I could have more about my specific case. your videos help me a ton!
This is very good information. I will definitely be using these techniques. This helps me understand the situation I am in. L Foot Drop, plus muscular atrophe and neuropathy in both lower legs. Fully regained use of R leg and foot following cerebral aneurysm 14 years ago. My balance has been bad ever since and I have been using a Quad cane. Looking forward to the day that I can toss it away! 🥇
Hi Tara, I love watching your videos. I am a new subbie. My daughter was involved in a terrible car accident a month ago and is in rehab recovering however, it has left her paralyzed from the waist down, but she has lots of feelings in her thighs and legs, but has not started moving her legs yet They have not stood her up yet either they’ve just been working on trunk and arm strength. She’s had a T 12 injury to her spine and is considered an incomplete like I said she has almost normal feeling her quads but has not started moving her legs just yet is there anything you could (generally)recommend?
That was a good educational video on drop foot A++. I liked the lean forward a bit as the most helpful for a friend of mine to use next. 👍😊 Thanks for posting!
I'm new to your channel as in I've subscribed but not really viewed much as of yet. But today wow😮 you are truly amazing thank you so much. I have MS and suffer from balance problems and foot drop. These exercises will definitely help me a lot. I look forward to doing a lot of excercises with you😊
Hi Dr.Tobias. Is it beneficial for me to use an AFO if my dorsiflexors has returned and just having slight spasticity when walking outdoor or uneven surfaces? I am currently in my 4th month of recovery from stroke and trying my best to train myself to improve my walking patternsand hopefully transition to walking with no cane. Your videos are helpful. Thank you for your good teachings!
Hello, how does one improve grip strength on a spastic arm with fingers hyperextended and/or just greatly deminished grip strength, ability to form a solid fist. Regaining; Strength, Dexterity, Coordination are paramount for I. Your videos are incredibly relevant to I, I appreciate the knowledge. I need to overcome the severe discomfort and actually perform these methods. Longterm untreated pain is physically limiting and throughly demoralizing. 13:53

Hi. You mentioned that peripheral neuropathy can cause footdrop. I have CPIN post my chemo (platinum based). My phsios have said i dont have dropfoot. So when i walk, my rightfoot slaps. But other tests for footdrop are ok. My ques to you - can chemotherapy cause footdrop. J
I'm 10 years post stroke now, and now my toes are the biggest problem of my stroke side foot. Is this something common. So painful when walking! My gait is worse now from the toes.

What if we have had mobility issues since birth? I have developed over age and both of my legs are weak and I can't stand on my toes and if I walk more they just free fall making sounds when it lands. It's there in my father as well. I think I got it as hereditary but my sister is very normal like other people. I also have shivers on my hands when I feel nervous and don't have proper balance. Please suggest what I am suffering from? I have been to several doctors but no one is able to pinpoint me to a conclusion. Please help.
I had hip replacement surgery and when I came it of the procedure I had no feeling in my right foot. Cannot dori flex at all. Realistically can I get this problem of drop foot resolved back to normal, or am I going to have this problem the rest of my life. I’m so pissed at my surgeon!
Good night I got a massive stroke 2 years now my foot is moving now but my hand is dislocated and can't used from in the shoulder what can I do to improve my hand plz help me
I actually have an extremely tight calf so not only can I not lift the front of my foot much ( I Can a little very very little) but I also can’t put my heel down. Any suggestions here? Thanks
@@susiehemsworth3791 The field of neurology is a tough one. I was diagnosed with ALS, and I couldn't believe it, and I knew he was wrong.

Hi Doc
Am just wondering, my foot is very stiff what should I do really do am so down
This one is a great video doc
Thanks for watching. I hope it helps!
It is actually the nerve that control the muscle that is the problem. Not just muscle. You need the nerve to move the muscle.
Thanks doctor ❤

Confused about which leg you are talking about
What is it when u can lift your foot but your fingers from your foot wont move
First comment 😊
My foot issue is right foot!!!
lot of salad, very little meat!!
She doesn't answer questions posted here!!!
So many talking
Why doesn't this lady slowly and clearly state her full name ? What's she possibly afraid of ?
