Patient Testimonials

Hi,

I am a premium package member ( patient name: Nikhat Begum)

I just wanted to thank the customer support team. Especially Partha Sarthy, he has been extremely helpful and prompt in solving my concerns. I am very happy about how he went out of his way to make things happen in a timely manner and followed up post-resolution.

To whom this letter of recommendation may concern.

Dear Sir,

I would like to share our very positive feedback concerning your business partner Vinay Venugopal.

He has been nothing but diligent and efficient in organising PCR tests for the whole family on behalf of Portea. And this several times being particularly proactive in paving the way through the registration and payment processes of the company, smoothing the way out for us right form the start until we received our results.

Kindly take this recommendation as a priority as Vinay Venugopal is certainly an added value to any company he would offer his services to.

Not to mention being able to communicate in English with him really took the stress off the whole medical process, which can certainly not be said for other laboratory partners.

This is one of the reasons we will carry on giving our business to Portea.

Best regards,

Johanna SALVADO and Family

The physiotherapist behaved professionally and the service was good. Call center executives were also good at addressing my concerns Thank you Santosh You have honestly done your job here. I got the account into my account

what is foot drop?

Foot drop, or drop foot, is a condition where a person finds it difficult to lift the front part of their foot, leading to dragging of the toes while walking. It is not a disease but rather a symptom of an underlying issue, often neurological or muscular. This condition can significantly impact mobility and daily activities, but timely treatment can help manage and recover functionality.

causes of foot drop

The root causes of foot drop are varied. Nerve injury, particularly damage to the peroneal nerve that controls foot and toe movement, is one of the most common causes. This damage may result from trauma, prolonged compression, or conditions such as diabetes. Neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis, stroke, or cerebral palsy, often lead to foot drop due to their impact on nerves and muscles. Muscle weakness from conditions like muscular dystrophy or prolonged inactivity also contributes to this condition. Furthermore, injuries to the leg or complications from hip or knee surgeries may result in foot drop.

symptoms and diagnosis of foot drop

Individuals with foot drop often experience difficulty lifting the front of the foot, causing a dragging motion while walking. To compensate, some may adopt a high-stepping walk. Other symptoms include muscle weakness in the lower leg and sensations of tingling, numbness, or pain along the affected area. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, imaging tests such as MRI or X-rays, and nerve conduction studies to pinpoint the root cause.

treatment options for foot drop

The management of foot drop focuses on addressing the underlying cause and improving mobility. Treatment methods often include braces or orthotics, which provide support and prevent dragging of the foot. Physiotherapy is crucial for strengthening leg muscles and improving flexibility, helping restore mobility. In severe cases, surgical interventions may be required to relieve pressure on nerves or repair damaged tendons. Medications such as anti-inflammatory drugs may also be prescribed to manage underlying conditions contributing to foot drop.

role of physiotherapy in recovery for foot drop

Physiotherapy plays a pivotal role in the rehabilitation of foot drop. A tailored physiotherapy program can include stretching exercises to enhance flexibility, strength training to rebuild muscle function, and gait training to correct walking patterns. These interventions improve the overall quality of life for individuals with foot drop.
