Morton’s Neuroma

At Active Step, we resolve symptoms of numbness, tingling and sharp shooting pains in the feet that may be affecting what footwear you can comfortably wear or your ability to join in dance and fitness activities without pain!

Morton's Neuroma Conditions

Our Musculoskeletal Podiatrists use several treatment approaches to resolve nerve related pains in the feet, to give you back the freedom to run, jump and dance and wear whatever shoes match your coat and handbag!

Morton’s Neuroma is also known as Interdigital Neuritis and relates to a fibrous nerve bundle that forms in between the toes and causes radiating pain and numbness in the toes.

The most common site of a Morton’s Neuroma is between the 3rd and 4th toe and diagnosis is usually made by squeezing the forefoot and listening for an audible click which is called “Mulder’s Click”.

The most common cause of Morton’s Neuroma is tight fitting footwear and ladies who wear high heels are typical sufferers. Other people that may suffer from neuromas are those who do lots of walking or running and people with flat feet or very high arched feet also seem to be more susceptible.

Our Musculoskeletal Podiatrists are specialists in diagnosing Morton’s neuroma and differentiating it from other causes of forefoot pain. Our Musculoskeletal Consultation with Video Gait Analysis will enable them to diagnose the condition, assess footwear and identify any gait-related issues that may be contributing to your symptoms so that they can tailor a treatment plan to get you pain-free again.

Treatments we offer to improve symptoms of Morton's Neuroma include:

We got a same day appointment. Mike had fungal nail infection, an open wound and painful Athlete’s foot. These were all greatly improved after the initial visit. It felt quite miraculous! Not cheap but well worth the money.

I went to Active Step after trying over the counter products as well as other podiatrists for years while my condition was getting worse instead of better. The service I got at Active Step couldn't have been any better and I've just been discharged successfully after 12 months of treatment. Jim, Zoe, Sophie and the rest of the team are not only highly professional, but also very personable and I cannot recommend them enough.
