I have had two injections for this condition. The first time the x-ray diagnosed Morton's neuroma was caused by tight shoes. I got rid of the shoes and the injection got rid of the pain in a few weeks. The second time was 3 decades later when I was cycling about 50 miles per day with soft bottom athletic shoes. I got an injection and also changed to stiff bottom cycling specific shoes. The injection (which is a bit painful) got rid of about 85-90% of the problem in the first 3 weeks. I also was given some adhesive egg or teardrop shaped pads to place in my shoes to support the metatarsal arch behind the problem area. Time to time I still have a small amount of discomfort, but the health benefits of that exercise out weighs any discomfort I have so I continue to cycle most every day for 60-90 minutes. Thanks for all the great informative videos. I really appreciate having access to you both and all the doctors you have as guests.
I’ve been cycling for the last 4 months and wow, my pain started with that! Going to get different cycling shoes & figure out how to insert ?? To help take pressure off. Doesn’t hurt 🏃🏼♀️ but does hurt 🏌️♀️.
Greetings from America. Interesting and informative video. I was diagnosed by an orthopedic surgeon as having Morton's Neuroma. I did not have any tests or injections, he knew by my description that I had a neuroma. And by the way, it was P A I N F U L. Ouch! I could hardly walk. The doc said mine was most likely cause by the fact that I had flat feet, which I have had all my life. He said due to not having any arches, as my feet are extremely flat, that when I walk, there is no arch to cushion the impact and my feet were taking a direct impact. He recommended longitudinal, metatarsal arch supports, which worked. I also found that I could just put a cotton ball under the affected area which also worked well. My neuroma was under the toe next to the small toe. I've had this condition for about 30 years. It has mostly gone away. Once in a while it acts up.
Thanks very much for this talk. I’m currently experiencing prolonged pain in my toes and feet. This will help direct self learning while I wait to see my doctor.
Somehow this channel always posts videos that are highly relevant to me at the time. I’ve got foot pain that google told me could be morton’s neuroma. It feels like I’m stepping on the bands on my foot pad and I have to relieve pressure off it immediately.
Wow! So glad you put this out. An avid cyclist, I was diagnosed with MN after some very painful moments during a mountain cycling trip. Did a steroid injection which worked well and made some adjustments in my cycling shoes and added the metatarsal pads to my shoes. I’ve only had to get one more shot, and it’s helped considerably. There is a surgery option, but the thought of not being able to feel a few toes didn’t sit well with me. I’m finding out it’s a manageable thing as long as I don’t climb any BIG mountains for long periods of time! Thanks for all your helpful videos 👍 absolutely enjoy the humor!😆
Thanks for the video, it was exactly what I was looking for. I've been dealing with Morton's neuroma and Metatarsalgia for almost four years I've gotten orthotics for my shoes I've had the injections and nothing seems to work, and I'm to the point where I believe I need surgery. I can make it about halfway through my day without my foot hurting depending on what my day is like, I'm usually on my feet all day long, so I get the pain and numb feeling every day. Time to find a foot doctor who can fix my issue.
I’m 28 and had to get them surgically removed. Been dealing with this for over 3 years and the injections only worked for so long. A month after surgery and they’re much better. Still not 100% but better than before where I can walk for as long as I want with no serious pain.
I was diagnosed with MN but my chiropractor gave me lazor treatments for a few weeks. Also wore orthotics and pads behind my metatarsal area. After 3 months the pain was gone and I did a lot of walking in Scotland for 2 weeks with no pain. I am careful to wear pads under my foot.
3 yrs ago I got a sudden pain with bruising on the side of my big toe from just walking in the door from doing errands. Felt like I had a pebble below my 3/4 toe area after in the padding of my left foot. GP was no help. Asked for a xray but she just laughed and changed the subject (phone call appt.) I went to a podiatrist which took a month to get in. She taped my foot up with a pad underneath and told me to try that for a few days an report back. It came off in my sleep. Follow up was 2 wks later which was her standard procedure I was told no sooner. Great 😢. All she wanted to do was sell me custom orthotics. Still having pain. Went to Physio in desperation. Helped a little. Eventually I saw a 2nd podiatrist and he advised that I had Metatarsalgia and showed me some stretches to do also to fill a wine bottle with hot water to roll under my foot. He also told me to get some blue superfeet insoles. So glad I went for a 2nd opinion. It still bothers me occasionally as I am an avid walker. I use CBD pain cream when it flares up which really helps. Stretches also help. No one could tell me what actually happened to cause the sudden pain with bruising initially.
Never wore tight fitting and narrow shoes, nor had a job that required standing, nor am I obese but got Morton's Neuroma anyway The pain was atrocious, sharp shock-like pain that limited walking. Orthotic, and box like shoes helped a bit before the pain eventually returned. Had surgery to cut the tendon to allow more space between the toes. Eventually helped a lot but must be careful to wear my orthotics. No pretty shoes for me.😢 My feet still have the numbness. Sure is debilitating.
Hey Docs, I had a condition you did NOT describe. Mine was a bone spur between the 2nd and 3rd phalanges. It was not seen on xrays. My doc could feel it with his finger tips. It really messed me up. Doc removed it with surgery. It never came back.
I was diagnosed with this condition. I was given orthotics and after an injection. Told to not wear “heels” anymore, not even my Dansko’s which are usually a great shoe, but they had enough of a lift that they worked as heels. The injection gave me great relief for almost 2 years. Now I notice if my feet get very cold it hurts or if I am on my feet standing for too long, I work on my feet 7-9 here a day. Not always moving more than 10’ at a time. I think I would rather do another injection than surgery!
I have had a Morton’s Neuroma for about 15 years - a simple Botox shot into the area is amazing at fixing the issue …mine was probably caused from 16 years of military service running in boots and pounding on concrete. Thanks for all the wonderful information docs ❤
I made the switch to boxed-toe, zero-drop type shoes about a year ago now; heck of a nice difference. They are much more comfortable to wear over the course of the day, and much more comfortable to walk in. A few years prior, I used to wear Vibrams Five Fingers a lot, but as a pretty large guy (6'2", 215lb) I would wear through them so fast they were just expensive to keep using. The minimalism boxed-toe shoes are very close to that sensation, and I find my feet are very comfortable now; no more aches or issues (I'm a few months shy of 50). When you look back in hind-sight, it's shocking how many shoes and boots really distort the natural layout of the feet, which leads to all sorts of problems over time.
I thought I had a Morton’s Neuroma, but it was diagnosed as metatarsalgia. I got a cortisone injection and started wearing Hoka’s and not going bare foot in the house. That has cured my foot problem. I now walk several miles a day with no problem. I am a Hoka fan and wear them everyday, much to my wife’s chagrin.
Very interesting. I've had 2 cortisone shots, with many years in between them, for plantar fasciaitis (spelling?). I was apprehensive because I had read and heard how painful the injection was. But on both occasions I felt no pain and my foot problems were taken care of. I still don't know why they didn't hurt, but I'll take it!
Great video so thanks. After some 20 years of pain I'm having a Morton's neurectomy next month. Over the past 7 or 8 years I've done the wide shoes, special orthotics from my podiatrist, 2 steroid injections and earlier this year 13 laser treatments. The injections helped for maybe a month or two but it always came back. The laser treatments provided relief for about 4 months but then it came back with a vengeance and is now the worst it's ever been. Podiatrist had MRI done and then suggested surgery and outlined what it would entail but my wife, being an RN and having worked several years in a major medical center OR, wanted me to see an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in foot and ankle so I did and he's the one doing the surgery not the podiatrist. This started with bike riding with improper shoes (athletic) using toe clips and I just ignored it (not smart). Tried many different bike shoes, insoles and clip positions but it's been so bad I rode only about 20% or my normal distance this year. Now I can't walk barefoot on hard surfaces or even golf as it's my right pivot foot so I feel I have no choice but to have the surgery. Really looking forward to relief and getting this behind me.
I was having the intense pain between the 3rd & 4th toes and the feeling of my sock being bunched up behind the toes. After 6 weeks of PT, that was useless, I got an injection and the pain was gone almost immediately. The PTist recommended wide Merrell’s hiking boots or similar. As I said, no pain for months.
Thank you I enjoy watching your videos! Question I’m having both my hips done on same day in November and wondering if you have any information on post care, I can only finds videos on one hip surgery. Thank you❤
Good luck, hope it works out. I'm going to see my Podiatrist again because mine started flaring up and its now constant. Hopefully a shot will fix the problem.
I got it from doing weighted calf riases... the worst thing ever... but after icing twice a day both front and back, along with toe exercises and keepi g presure off that area, it reduced in two weeks, i think 4 more weeks of doing it and it'll completely go away.
Will you talk about bunions. Mine has progressively gotten worse even though I have worn orthotics for years. Is there help with this problem besides surgery.
I have just been diagnosed with a Morton's Neuroma and Planter fasciitis in my left foot, my 2nd and 3rd toes feel numb and it also feels like I am walking on a pebble constantly, it is also painful that I have to take the pressure off my foot. I was born with slightly deformed feet where my little toes cross over the toe next to it and I am flat footed. When I was working I had to wear steel toe capped trainers as I was a building custodian, I was on my feet for most of the day and some days I would walk to and from work which was around 1 and 1/2 mile if my husband had the car. when I got home my feet were very painful, I would take anti inflammatory pain killers and put anti Inflammatory gel on my foot, I just thought it was because of being on my feet for so long. I put up with it for around 7/8 years, I have now had to finish work due to health problems, I am 56 years old. I am now just waiting to see what my treatment will be.
Imo shoes aren't wide enough. Not sure why. They've been making shoes for centuries. I have D width feet but D width shoes will be too tight. I use 2 pair of thin inner socks. Even a thicker sock is enough to cause mortons neuroma.
What about cryosurgery? I have read about this, but there is mixed data, and not many foot specialists are performing this. Can you please elaborate on this?
I've had this for over 5 years now and I don't know if I should get the surgery. I've had the injections but they only last for a little while. I wear orthotics every day but you can't wear them with sandals or heels. I'm tired of wearing tennis shoes all the time. What can I do???
If it feels like you have a rock in your shoe and you can't find it, you have a Morton's Neuroma. The symptoms and the pain will go away if you just quit walking. Surgery was my solution and I do not regret having it done.
Some time ago I had plantars fasciitis in 1 foot. Wore special inserts for several years. It's gotten better to the point the inserts are painful so don't use them any more. No issues in 3 years with pain. The only annoying issue is I have the feeling when walking that I've got a sock rolled up under my toes. Both feet. Not painful just pressure that gets painful eventually. This happen even when wearing the inserts. There's no swelling or anything I can feel, just odd. I was told it's a permanent nerve damage. Any thoughts?
So I think I had this. I stopped wearing snug shoes long ago, but sensation of an electric shock going through my foot with each stride didn't go away. One day I ran through my house barefoot to catch a phone call. I stepped on a shedding rake that had fallen on the floor. It had a long row of upturned teeth that went thru my foot. I went to the e.r., it was a wicked looking x-ray. They loaded me with ketamine and removed it. They gave me a dose of morphine for the road and 2 weeks worth of antibiotics. I didn't need any more pain meds and that electric shooting pain has been gone ever since. Thankfully. I wouldn't recommend stepping on a rake, but obviously something changed.
Any chance of addressing raynaud's syndrome. I've had this for 30 years. Now living in TX where it is warm, my hands and feet are just red instead of blanching white when my hands or feet are cold or whenever they want to be ridiculous....
The comment about the parade killed me LOL All I thought is how ironic a parade that would be with nobody walking in it. Maybe a fire works display instead.
Thirty years ago, as a bedside nurse, after failing all non-invasive, I requested surgery. Ortho who supervised screwed up my foot so badly that it affected my career as a bed side nurse. And that foot surgery affected the knee. Thirty years ago is a long time; but like a "do-over". Sigh.
I’ve been off work for a year with the pain from this, and my podiatrist keeps telling me that this is an aroma however there is much more that shows on the MRI and I don’t believe that I could have this much pain in a large anatomical area just from a small neuroma that measures under one centimeter. I’m at the point where I am considering hearing you say this is exactly why I don’t want to. I don’t know what to do because I’m completely debilitated with this foot. It has gotten progressively worse over the course of a year. I can’t walk normally, can’t place full weight on the foot, can’t drive. I’ve tried all conservative treatments, including Cortisone injections, which by the way, made it worse. The only thing I haven’t tried our special orthotics and I’m about to do that. Otherwise, I’m completely desperate and feeling pretty hopeless.

Morton neuroma both feet and Taylor bunions. Pf in left. So much pain. My doctor and podiatrist has done nothing.
Found out I have a stress fracture on my 4th metatarsal. Wearing a Boot for 6 weeks, aspirin, supplements, Dexa scan this week.
