Morton’s Neuroma

Do you feel burning pain or tingling between your toes, often described as walking on a pebble? 

​

Morton’s neuroma is a thickening of the nerve in the ball of the foot, and it can cause discomfort with every step. The pain may be worse in narrow shoes or during activity. Paul can confirm the diagnosis with ultrasound and provide effective ways to reduce nerve irritation and improve comfort.
