Re: walking and knee pains

Leena,

Perhaps it is time to get your AFOs needs re-checked. You may benefit from

something else. As we age, our body needs change too.

Hi Leena. I have knee hyper extension, too. When I had my last AFOs

made they adjusted the slant of the plastic in the back of my legs to stop the

hyper extension...all works well now.

i have knee hyper extension badly. The problems i had when they tried to correct

it, is my hips and quads are very weak so i have to have a certain degree of

hyperextension to walk and my last AFO's over corrected it so i kept falling

forward. Going to have a consult this week to look at the Blue Rockers. Will

keep everyone informed on my experience. As Gretchen and others know, this has

been the most frustrating part of CMT for me!
