Understanding Neuromas at Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute

Neuromas, often manifesting as pain in the ball of the foot, can be a source of persistent discomfort. At Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute, we specialize in diagnosing and treating neuromas, helping you walk in comfort once again.

What is a Neuroma?

A neuroma, frequently referred to as a Morton's neuroma, is a benign growth of nerve tissue commonly found between the third and fourth toes. It can cause pain, a burning sensation, tingling, or numbness in the ball of the foot and toes.

Causes and Symptoms of Neuromas

Neuromas often develop due to irritation, pressure, or trauma. Contributing factors can include:

• Wearing high-heeled or tight shoes
• Certain sports or activities that put pressure on the feet
• Foot deformities such as bunions, hammertoes, or flat feet

Our Approach to Neuroma Treatment

The treatment for neuromas at our clinic may involve:

• Conservative Methods: These include footwear modifications, orthotics, and physical therapy to relieve pressure and pain.
• Medication: Anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroid injections to reduce pain and swelling.
• Advanced Treatment Options: For persistent cases, we may recommend procedures such as sclerosing injections, cryotherapy, or surgery to remove the neuroma.

Minimally Invasive Surgical Options

Surgery is considered only after conservative treatments have been exhausted. Our surgical techniques focus on minimally invasive procedures to remove the neuroma, ensuring a quicker recovery and minimal discomfort.
