What Causes Morton’s Neuroma?
Morton’s neuroma involves changes in a nerve in the forefoot. The exact cause is unknown, but high-heeled shoes and being overweight are thought to be risk factors because they increase pressure on the forefoot.
Morton’s neuroma gets its name from a general surgeon named Thomas George Morton, who treated soldiers in the American civil war.
Morton’s neuroma is characterised by an thickening of the nerve and compression of the nerve in the forefoot, typically between the third and forth toe. This compression can lead to pain, tingling, or numbness in the foot making walking difficult.
