Morton's neuroma
Morton's neuroma is a benign proliferation of fibrous connective tissue in the area of the medial and lateral plantar nerve. The pathology is characterized by the compaction of the outer structure of the nerves of the foot with a characteristic pain syndrome. The pathology is manifested by chronic trauma to the third interdigital nerve due to pinching of the ligament between the bones.
Morton's neuroma often affects women due to the use of narrowed shoes with heels; in men, Morton's neuroma may appear as a result of flat feet. It is more often localized in the area between the 3rd and 4th toes.
The symptomatology of Morton's neuroma depends on the size of the tumor and includes the following symptoms:
- pain syndrome of the foot;
- increased discomfort when using narrowed shoes;
- shooting in the toes;
- tingling, loss of sensitivity in the foot.
Unpleasant sensations can occur without stress on the arch of the foot, in a calm position.
