Diseases

Morton's Neuroma

A swollen inflamed nerve in the ball of the foot, usually between the base of the second and third toes (known as the third intermetatarsal space), caused by chronic compression of a branch of the plantar nerve between the ends of the metatarsal bones.

SYMPTOMS

Typically, there's no outward sign of this condition, such as a lump. Instead, you may experience the following symptoms:

  • a feeling as if you're standing on a pebble in your shoe
  • a burning pain in the ball of your foot that may radiate into your toes
  • tingling or numbness in your toes

CAUSES

Morton's neuroma seems to occur in response to irritation, pressure or injury to one of the nerves that lead to your toes.
