Here’s what you should know about getting board-certified Colorado Springs Morton’s Neuroma care at Intermountain Foot & Ankle:

Morton’s neuroma is a build-up of benign (non-cancerous) tissue in the nerves running between the long bones of the foot. Morton’s neuroma occurs when two bones rub together and squeeze the nerve between them. Most often, neuromas develop between the bones leading to the third and fourth toes.

Morton’s neuroma often causes swelling, tenderness, and pain. If the pain becomes severe, it may cause tingling, numbness, and burning in the toes. It usually occurs after standing or walking for a long period of time. Treatment for this condition may involve rest and/or a change in footwear that does not restrict the foot. If the problem persists, cortisone injections and/or surgery may be considered.
