Diagnosing And Treating Morton's Neuroma

Do you sometimes feel like you have a pebble on the surface of your foot while walking? The most likely cause of the condition is Morton's neuroma. Individuals call it the 'tumor of the nerve.' However, it is not a tumor but the thickening of the tissues. The thickness usually arises next to the nerve leading to the toe. The individuals who are most prone to it are women, and they are ten times likely to have the condition compared to men. The primary reason being women wear heels often. The heels may cause a lot of pressure to the foot and thus leading to Morton's neuroma. Also, wearing tight and narrow shoes may bring about the disease.
