What is Morton's Neuroma?
Morton’s Neuroma, a nerve condition affecting the foot, often feels like standing on a pebble in your shoe. Common symptoms include burning pain in the ball of the foot, tingling, or numbness between the toes, especially when walking. These signs signal an irritated nerve, typically between the third and fourth toes, and indicate it’s time to seek expert help.
Common Morton's Neuroma Conditions
Morton’s Neuroma presents in various forms, each affecting your foot in unique ways:
- Between Toes Pain: Most often occurs between the third and fourth toes.
- Forefoot Discomfort: A sensation of standing on a pebble.
- Toe Numbness: Tingling or numbness spreading to the toes.
- Walking Pain: Sharp, burning pain while walking.
- Shoe Discomfort: Increased pain when wearing tight or narrow shoes.
Causes of Morton's Neuroma
Several factors contribute to the development of Morton’s Neuroma, including:
- Tight Footwear: Shoes that constrict the toes.
- High-Heeled Shoes: Pressure increased on the forefoot.
- High-Impact Sports: Activities stressing the foot.
- Foot Deformities: Flat feet, bunions, and hammertoes.
- Repetitive Stress: Occupations or activities that put continuous pressure on the foot.
