In 1998 I had my right accessory navicular bone removed and a screw placed in my ankle to reduce pronation so that I would be less likely to stress the tendon reconstructions that had to be done at the time as well. Racing in six months, no problems since... or I thought, until now--- maybe??? Anyone out there with a similar situation? Here goes... Well, for about the last two years I have had dead leg syndrome, or foot drop on my left side. Essentially, whenever I do a workout or race where my turnover is faster than a normal recovery run, my leg feels like it falls asleep and my foot just slaps the ground. I feel like I have no motor control. I've read a lot of the threads on this, but my question is, does anyone who has this dead leg/foot drop problem also have an accessory navicular? Just trying to figure out what might be going on, I wonder if there is a correlation. Since pronation in my right foot was corrected when the bone was removed and the screw was inserted, my foot strike on my right would be a lot different than my left. Over the last six years running with one corrected foot and one pronated foot, could the difference be enough to cause my right hip to now be 16 degrees higher than the left hip and give me dead leg on the left side?
