Summary
This study tests a new ankle orthosis (brace) in 4 people with chronic ankle injuries or nerve damage that limits ankle movement. Participants will wear the new brace for one month and compare it to their usual brace or no brace. The goal is to see if the new device improves ankle stability, function, and quality of life.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a better supportive device for people with chronic ankle instability or nerve injuries affecting ankle movement.
