Morton’s neuroma is caused by injury to the nerves on the bottom of the foot. Pain is located on the bottom of the foot, most commonly between the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th toe. Pain is often described as “shooting” and happens more when walking. It may also feel like a “pebble” in your foot. Symptoms also include numbness or tingling in the same area. This injury may be insidious (no known cause) or may be caused by poor foot mechanics such as flat foot, calf tightness, poor footwear, or other foot deformities. Your therapist is trained to assess and treat Morton’s Neuroma and provide you with a custom treatment plan to address your discomfort.
