Abstract

Foot drop, from spinal or peripheral nerve disorder, affects gait and can contribute to falls. One of its more frequently identified etiologies is common peroneal nerve compression, often near the fibular head or neck, where the nerve is anatomically more superficial. The following Case illustrates an unusual example of unilateral foot drop that developed as the result of compression stocking use.
