You deserve comfortable leg braces that withstand heavy use in the Las Vegas heat. Assistive devices can help with numerous conditions that result in foot drop and limited mobility. Evolve Prosthetics & Orthotics is dedicated to providing leg braces designed for comfort and functionality to keep our customers on their feet and active.
Who Needs Leg Braces?
Doctors often prescribe leg braces to assist with foot drop. If you suffer nerve damage or injury to your leg or foot, you may drag your toes when you walk. The most common conditions with this symptom include the following:
- Stroke
- Alzheimer’s Disease & Parkinson’s Disease
- Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
- Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
- Muscular Dystrophy
- Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT)
- Lou Gehrig’s Disease (ALS)
- Spinal Cord Injury
- Nerve Injury
Why Is Comfort A Top Priority?
For adults needing leg braces, comfortable wear makes it possible to leave them on for extended hours when needed. Uncomfortable equipment doesn’t fit properly and can irritate your skin. You may avoid your AFO device altogether if it causes too much pain and discomfort. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Get your braces fitted properly. It’s important to avoid putting too much pressure on any part of your leg.
- Consider the composition of the equipment. Neoprene, leather, and nylon are comfortable materials often used in quality braces.
- Ensure there’s enough ventilation. This can minimize sweating and skin irritation.
- Invest in an adjustable brace. If your leg swells or you gain or lose weight, you must adjust your equipment appropriately.
