What is Morton’s Neuroma?

Morton’s neuroma, according to the Mayo Clinic, is a painful condition that affects the metatarsal, most often the place between the third and fourth toes. It may feel like you are standing on a rock in your shoe or a crease in your sock.

Morton’s neuroma is a thickening of the tissue around one of the nerves in the toes. This can cause a sharp burning pain in the ball of the foot. You may have itching, burning, or numbness in the affected fingers.

High-heeled or tight shoes are linked to the development of Morton’s neuroma. Many people find relief in starting to wear shoes with lower heels and a wider toe box. Sometimes corticosteroid injections or surgery is necessary.
