Diagnosis, Causes, and Treatment
Morton's neuroma is a condition that occurs when one of the nerves in the foot, usually between the toes, becomes enlarged or swollen. This enlargement can cause pain and a sensation of tingling in the affected area.
Causes of Morton's Neuroma:
Tight-fitting Shoes: High heels or continuous friction may contribute to irritating the nerve.
Excessive Foot Pressure: Resulting from high sports activities or excessive loading.
Abnormal Foot Structure: Some individuals are more prone to Morton's neuroma due to an abnormal foot shape.
Symptoms of Morton's Neuroma:
Sharp Pain or Stabbing Sensations between the toes.
Swelling in the affected area.
Changes in Foot Shape or symptoms resembling a bunion.
Treatment Options:
Changes in Footwear: Using appropriate and comfortable shoes.
Foot Pads Usage: To reduce pressure on the nerve.
Cold Compress Application: To reduce swelling and alleviate pain.
Anti-Inflammatory Medications: To control inflammation.
Physical Therapy: To strengthen muscles and improve balance.
