Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a rare, inherited and currently incurable neurological disorder affecting approximately 1 in 2,500 people.
It is characterised by a progressive loss of muscle tissue and touch sensation across various parts of the body.
The first symptom of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is usually foot drop, a gait abnormality characterised by an impaired ability to raise the foot at the ankle, resulting in a persistent dropping of the forefoot when walking.
