@@mabo4848studies show as many as 50% as soon as a month after the surgery and up to 5 years later develop a painful stump neuroma.. The main issue is it is not just the surgery may not help you but there is a significant chance it will make you much worse. The biology of severed nerves is they will try to grow your entire life and develop a stump which turns into a debilitating condition.The idea of cutting out a nerve is only found in this ridiculous procedure.

I started with symptoms in my left foot about 18 months ago while on holiday. I initially thought that i had trodden on something. Fast forward to the present and i am in pain whenever im on my feet. I limp everywhere and it is starting to have an adverese effect on my whole leg and my mental state. Working out is very painful but without that in my life my mental health is worse. Tomorrow i am phoning my doctor in the UK to try to get a private appointment with someone. The broken NHS is telling me it will be August before i am seen. Frankly i cannot cope with that. I hope they can cure me. I just want to get my life and fitness back. I miss the pleasure of pain free walking and running. Thankyou for the video doctor.

I have this. It irritates the heck out of me. Ive had it years..I do 20 mins of exercise a day then have the pain for hours after. I've always worn comfy shoes BUT when I was 13 or 14 I bought a pair of shoes that were too small for me and being young/stoopid and wanting to follow fashion I wore them and Ive never really worn heels since. DON;T DO IT KIDS!

I had Morton neuroma on both feet and surgeries. Then I’ve had bursas there for years and tons of cortisone injections. Maybe a bit to do with wrong footwear when I was younger and additionally too much practical work for a woman with small feet per my height. Up and down ladders, decorating c 150 rooms and other heavy work. I used to love walking/ rambling but now aged 71 I daren’t as these feet have to last a bit longer!

If you have hypermobility syndrome or EDS, you can end up with this. I never wore heels. Didn't wear tight shoes. I have a low volume foot and had to find good footwear that wasn't tight (gout or cyst on big toe), which usually had to be laced up to keep them on. Never was able to wear flip flops because they lacked an arch and a heel cup and I have fallen arches and weak ankles and would walk out of them. (The arch and heel cup of Superfeet corrected my over pronation.) Then, I found a pair of flip flops with a heel cup when the gout was acting up and I wanted to keep a shoe from resting on it. So comfy... I thought. WRONG. My arch and heel might have been supported, but I wore them for five months and when cooler weather came around I went to put my shoes on and thought there was a nail coming up through the shoe--in both shoes! Turns out the lack of containment / the lack of support of my upper foot combined with the cushioning (so I didn't feel the neuroma developing) resulted in inappropriate pressure to that area of my foot. I have two on the left foot (both places mentioned) and one on the right foot. ALL FROM WEARING FLIP FLOPS. So, for 56 years I wore flat, thin soled shoes (rarely a heel) and pounded my feet on hard surfaces. I went barefoot... a lot. NO neuromas. I wore those flip flops for about 5 months and had forefoot instability and got multiple neuromas. Also, when I mentioned to the foot surgeon that my mother had them and had surgery, he said to me "Morton's neuromas don't run in families." WRONG. EDS runs in families (it's genetic) and hypermobility increases the risk of Morton's Neuromas. My whole family has hypermobility issues. My mother, two of my female cousins, and I wound up with these in our feet. The three of them in their 30s because they all wore heels. How could a foot surgeon not know about this? How could this doctor not seem to know about this and think it's tight shoes and heels for women? It's believed that 70% of people with EDS are women. LEARN ABOUT WOMEN'S HEALTH CONDITIONS THAT RELATE TO THEIR FEET! What's so hard to figure out about hypermobility? Why weren't people like me warned? Couldn't even get an EDS diagnosis for years if you didn't have stretchy skin.

Male here, 66 years old. The last year or so I've had a feeling like my sock was bunched up under my foot. Also numbness on the bottom of the left foot. My left leg is 1-1 1/2 inches longer than my right leg-so the left foot takes the majority of the stress when I walk. I have a 1/2 inch lift put on my right shoe heel to make up for the leg length difference. I don't feel pain in my foot so much as numbness and the sensation that my socks are bunched up under my left. Does this indicate Morton's Neuroma?

this is money making for the doctor...he says u need to come back WEEKLY to get the injections so they can find the right spot where the neuroma is...um...ULTRASOUND and u find it 100% guaranteed. If you think you have one or the specialist does then just ask for an Ultrasound and not bother with the weekly injections. And you CAN get neuromas in between toes 1 & 2. I broke my foot hi up across metatarsals for the big toe and now have a large neuroma in usual spot but toes 1 & 2 and also 3 &4. I have not worn tight shoes in 40 years but i use to walk a LOT everyday on gravel surfaces and then as I said I dropped a large piece of wood on my foot and broke it....otherwise thorough info...
