Also called a Morton's neuroma, this problem begins when the nerve in your foot thickens. This condition has a number of different symptoms. The most common symptoms are:

  • Burning and stinging and radiating pain in the ball of the foot and also towards the toes.

  • An acute stabbing pain in the foot that comes and goes.

  • Numbness and tingling of the toes

  • Sudden cramps or pain in the toes or forefoot.

We offer treatment options such as steroid injections, oral medications and orthotics. We do alcohol based injection therapy for resistant cases. We also do surgery to remove the damaged nerve when required.
