I have recently developed Drop Foot in my left leg.

I am pretty sure its something to do with the peroneal nerve. I say this because I have a numbness running from my big toe up to the bottom of my leg and going slightly up the side of my lower leg. It seems to be along the path of the peroneal nerve.

Some days I get a pain up the side of my leg when I walk. It clears after a while but still annoying.

I have been running the past few days. I find it hard and usually end up running on the toes of my left foot. I thought it may make it better and the doctors told me to continue with it. This morning I got up and nearly fell over.

So stressed atm! Doctors are not telling me anything really and are not concerned. They said its possibly a trapped nerve that will clear over time.

I had the same problem last year, but without the foot drop and it cleared. If it gets real bad I will see a doctor - again.

Atm I am just holding out because the drop foot hasn't got any worse apart from today, but i feel thats because of yesterdays running.
