Mortons Neuroma
Morton’s neuroma is a painful condition affecting the foot, specifically the area between the toes. It involves the thickening of the tissue around a nerve leading to the toes, typically between the third and fourth toes. This thickening can cause sharp, burning pain and discomfort, often described as feeling like there is a pebble in the shoe.
Key Features of Morton’s Neuroma
-
Location of Pain: Pain is commonly felt in the ball of the foot, between the toes, and may radiate to the toes themselves.
-
Pain Characteristics: The pain can be sharp, burning, or tingling and is often aggravated by walking or wearing tight shoes.
-
Nerve Thickening: Morton’s neuroma is caused by a benign enlargement of the nerve tissue, usually due to compression or irritation.
