Endometriosis may obstruct the tube and keep the egg and sperm from uniting. But the condition also seems to affect fertility in less-direct ways, such as damage to the sperm or egg. Even so, many women with mild to moderate endometriosis can still conceive and carry a pregnancy to term.
I know people who wear one ankle foot orthotic (AFO) brace. Answer Wiki. To expound on the picture of an AFO, this is a device that is custom fitted to the patient. It is designed to hold the ankle in a 90 degree angle. People who wear this will have developed a foot drop.
An AFO may be used for foot drop when surgery is not warranted or during surgical or neurologic recovery. The specific purpose of an AFO is to provide toe dorsiflexion during the swing phase, medial or lateral stability at the ankle during stance, and, if necessary, pushoff stimulation during the late stance phase.
