Hey doctor i have a question. I saw somebody and was thinking about this. In a patient with high tone but still has both dorsiflexion and planterflexion intact,which afo is considered more appropriate? (Obviously depends on person and case) Rigid or articulated afo with hinge?

Hey Doc: I have a fused ankle with a muscle flap. I have undergone 6 surgeries, to include removal of all the fusion hardware and a partial fibulectomy. Since these procedures, my foot kind of wanders and movers around whenever I walk and the whole foot/ankle feels weak overall. I have braces from when I broke my ankle the 1st time and other subsequent surgeries and have been contemplating if such a brace-system could help stabilize my foot. I took great notice of the carbon AFO at time-stamp 4:20 and am curious if a similar device could work for me. My real issue is the medial muscle flap is pretty large and thus my foot cannot fit into a traditional "U" shaped brace. What do you think?

James, the nice thing about carbon fiber AFOs is that they are pre- fabricated and therefore you can try it before you buy it. If you have a local orthotist, you can try the brace at their lab and see if it works.

great explanation, the patient should know because the prosthetists in some cases want you to have the most expensive equipment even if it does not do any good to you or are way too heavy. It happened to me with Hanger Prosthesis. I do not recommend them they just want to make money with you. Thanks for this great video.

I wear a leg brace because of a toe drag, but I found the plastic brace very uncomfortable. My foot would start to pain and I still wore out the toe of my shoe. I got to the point where I was trying to walk so my foot wouldn't hurt. The brace that is attached to the shoe is perfect for me. It lets me do everything such as square dancing which I love. One of the people that I square dance with is a physio therapist and she said the metal brace is the best. I broke my hip in 2018 and was in the hospital for a month and the physio therapist in the hospital that was looking after me also said the metal brace was better. I am glad I have the metal so I can live life to the fullest, no matter how old fashion it is.

why is suspension difficult? and since you've had it for so long, which have you preferred over time--no interface or interface?

@@karthik_silkroads Everything about the socket is custom made for you only and if you aren't comfortable with the fit or the socket doesn't stay on well then you will experience difficulties. This takes time and patience and a good prosthetist. I still struggle with the interface ? all the time. I currently use a liner with a pin locking mechanism by coyote design. But honestly, I still miss the straight suction. It gives you the best feel and suspension but you do have to put up with more skin irritation and breakdown. Still though, it easy to take on and off and you can use the valve to adjust air pressure inside the socket. Feels like it is part of you, like not wearing a condom so to speak. Alignment of the prosthesis is also critical, I make my own small adjustments to the alignment to get it right for me.

I've done everything people with 2 legs have done and continue to do. It's my life. Over the years I have done basketball, tennis, martial arts, boxing as far as sports goes. I had to keep up with my brothers and friends growing up and never had any other amputees around me and still don't. Are you a new amputee? If so, what is it like for you?
