When to Get a New Brace 

Original Post:  Since I have stopped wearing a full leg brace when I walk, my paralyzed leg has been rotating outward and my foot has been rotating outward.

Would it warrant getting another brace to stop the rotating problem? My old brace is over 30 some years old and doesn't fit anymore.

Dr. Bruno’s Response:  Simple answer.  See your physician - preferably a rehabilitative physician/physiatrist.  You need a new brace.
