Hi, I have a 78 year old male who has had an MRI that shows compression of the sciatic nerve roots at the L4-L5-S1 levels. He has no pain, but walks with what we call a "clunk foot" or slapping gait. The left foot is in equinus, and there is weaknes of the tib ant muscle. Do you think a standard drop foot splint would help? Regards, Vernon
