Neuromas

Morton’s neuroma may occur in response to irritation, injury or pressure — such as from wearing tight-fitting shoes. However, it can occur for unknown reasons. At first, the pain may worsen when you wear tight or narrow shoes or engage in activities that place pressure on your foot. Over time, though, symptoms may last for weeks or months.
Treatments for Morton’s neuroma commonly involve changing footwear, resting your foot, and using arch supports or pads to help take pressure off the area. In some cases, your doctor may recommend anti-inflammatory drugs, a cortisone injection or surgery.
