If you're suffering from Morton's Neuroma, a common foot condition that causes discomfort in the ball of the foot, you're not alone. In this detailed video, Houston podiatrist Dr. Andrew Schneider shares the absolute best treatments for Morton's Neuroma, providing valuable information to help alleviate your symptoms.

Morton's Neuroma occurs due to the thickening of tissue surrounding the nerves leading to the toes, commonly between the third and fourth toes. Symptoms include pain, tingling, numbness, and burning sensations in the affected area. Conservative measures are often the first line of treatment, including rest, ice, and wearing wide shoes to reduce pain and inflammation. Orthotics, custom-made shoe inserts, can provide support and cushioning, while physical therapy and stretching exercises help strengthen the foot muscles and reduce tension.

Advanced treatments for Morton's Neuroma include corticosteroid injections, which reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms, and shockwave therapy, a non-invasive procedure that uses sound waves to stimulate healing and increase blood flow. Shockwave therapy has shown significant reductions in pain and improved foot function. Surgery may be considered as a last resort for severe cases, typically involving neuroma excision, the removal of the affected nerve.

Prevention strategies for Morton's Neuroma include wearing shoes with roomy toe boxes, avoiding high heels, and ensuring proper arch support. Stretching exercises and foot massages can also promote foot health and reduce the risk of injury.
