A neuroma (Morton’s neuroma) is a benign but painful condition that most commonly occurs in the small nerve that runs between the metatarsal bones in the ball of the foot and into the third and fourth toes. Narrow shoes, high heels, injuries, or foot abnormalities can all result in nerve irritation. This irritation results in inflammation and scar tissue forms around the nerve, resulting in pain that can quickly knock you off your feet. When this happens, call Silverstone Podiatry for neuroma treatment in New York, NY, and restore you to your pain-free, mobile lifestyle once again.
