You’re suffering from Morton’s Neuroma

If you feel like rock inside your shoe when you’re walking?

About Morton’s Neuroma

Do you sometimes feel like there’s a rock inside your shoe when you’re walking? But when you check to see what’s causing the discomfort, you can’t find any rock or pebble. If this sounds familiar, you might have a condition called Morton’s neuroma.
What Causes
Morton’s Neuroma?

Morton’s neuroma is caused by the squeezing and irritation of a small nerve called the common plantar digital nerve which provides the sensation to the webspace between the toes. This nerve runs very close to an important supporting ligament of the forefoot, the transverse intermetatarsal ligament which runs across the foot bones.

What Are Some of The
Symptoms?
  • Feeling of a pebble in the sock
  • Numbness or tingling in the neuroma toes
  • Pain between the third and fourth toes
  • Pain on the balls of the foot

Morton’s neuroma symptoms are typically on one side of the foot, usually between the third and fourth toes but the pain can extend outwards or even involve the whole side of the morton’s foot. You will not likely feel a lump in your neuroma foot, because a neuroma is generally small. You may feel a burning pain in your forefoot, and this pain can extend into the toes and be hard to find relief from Morton’s neuroma.

The pain is generally worse when wearing shoes or with activity, and can create the feeling of a pebble in the shoe. In addition, you may feel numbness and tingling in the toes as the condition affects the sensory aspects of the nerves in the foot. The episodes of pain can be intermittent. You may experience flare ups such as two attacks in a week, but then have no symptoms for over a year. However, the attacks tend to become more frequent as time progresses. Rarely, a foot may contain two separate Morton’s neuromas.

What Are The Treatments
for Morton's Neuroma?

Ultrasound guided non-surgical procedures are the treatments of choice to cure Morton’s neuroma.

It is very common for conservative treatment and corticosteroid injections not to help in treating your Morton’s neuroma. Depending on your other medical conditions and an assessment by our one of our doctors, we perform:

  • Ultrasound Guided Radiofrequency Ablation
  • Ultrasound Guided Cyroablation
  • Ultrasound Guided Neurolytic Ablation

Why suffer longer when you have a cure

Our Non-Surgical Treatments for Your Morton’s Neuroma

Ultrasound Guided Cryotherapy Ablation

This minimally invasive treatment makes use of extremely cold temperatures to target nerves affected by Morton’s Neuroma. This procedure is done by using liquid nitrogen or argon gas in order to freeze and destroy tissues affected by Morton’s Neuroma.

Ultrasound Guided Radio Frequency Ablation

This treatment makes use of high-frequency radio waves which target nerves affected by Morton’s Neuroma. The heat emitted by these radio waves breaks down proteins which prevents nerve fibers from transmitting pain.

Customized Orthotics for Morton’s Neuroma Relief

Our custom-designed orthotics will help you with your biomechanical foot issues such as problems with walking and running. We offer two types of designs that ensure maximum comfort and rigidness for your feet. You can choose from Comfort or Support Orthotics.

Corticosteroid Injection for Temporary Relief

Corticosteroid Injections can be used for temporary pain relief. This should used rarely due to its adverse effects which may include fat pad atrophy and weakening of the muscles and ligaments which could lead to further foot pain and instability.

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy for Morton’s Neuroma Relief

This treatment transmits pressure waves onto the affected area through the use of Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology. These waves help stimulate metabolism, enhance blood circulation, and accelerate the healing process.
