Neuromas

A neuroma is a condition that usually begins when a nerve is compressed this may then leads to thickening of the nerve. The most common neuroma in the foot is called a “Morton’s neuroma”, which occurs between the third and fourth toes.

Causes:

Neuromas are most often caused by tight fitting shoes or a particular foot type.

Symptoms:

Cramping, burning and numbness. Individuals may also feel as if there is something in inside the ball of the foot.

Symptoms can also present with a shock like pain that shoots up into the foot

Diagnosis:

The foot and ankle surgeon will obtain a history and physical. Diagnosis is based on clinical examination of the foot and radiographic evaluation.

Treatment:

The foot and ankle surgeon will recommend the most appropriate treatment plan depending on the severity of the neuroma. Most neuromas are treated non-surgically with multiple treatment options tailored to your specific symptoms.
