Home » Blog » Morton’s Neuroma: Fast Relief!
Morton’s Neuroma is more correctly termed as interdigital nerve compression, and is not a cancerous condition. It is a thickening of nerve tissue in the toes (most often between the 3rd and 4th). Symptoms are foot pain and burning in the ball of the foot, and possibly numbness in the toes.
Most often, your symptoms are caused by compression from wearing shoes which are too narrow. With a tight toe box, your feet suffer and affect your overall health. While flip flops and sandals may be the most comfortable for you, without proper support they aren’t always appropriate – and can also lead to achilles problems and plantar issues.
We know that Morton’s Neuroma symptoms can ruin your day, especially when it requires you to remain on your feet for hours at a time. If this condition is your diagnosis, choosing a pair of shoes from this list can make walking a joyful experience again!
This shoe is favored by people working on their feet all day for good reason…they are extremely comfortable. Orthopedic-grade cork comprises the foot bed, along with latex – and a tooled upper lends a bit of fashion.
If you are looking for a new sneaker, this may be the one. A stretchy upper means that these shoes move in all the right places and give you the wiggle room you need. There is a removable orthotic insert that gives those who need it the perfect amount of arch support.
The Birkenstock brand has long been a favorite of people with a wide variety of foot issues. If you need a close-toed shoe that is as stylish as it is comfortable, the Bennington is a fantastic choice. A wide toe box, great arch support and deep heel cup make these ankle boots one of the best available.
Another winner when it comes to sneakers, the Ecco Soft VII has a wide toe box with a narrow heel. That means that your feet won’t slip out or rub in a way that makes for painful heel blisters. There are colors and patterns to match almost any outfit, making them a good choice for anyone.
Hotter has so many great styles that it’s hard to choose just one. From ankle boots to beautiful dress shoes, the brand is the perfect choice for people with Morton’s Neuroma and other foot conditions. Roomy toe boxes and shock absorbing soles are only two of the wonderful details that have gone into the making of the brand.
We know that foot pain can be excruciating – so why should you have to wait for appointments? Dr. Elizabeth E. Auger offers same-day appointments and always welcomes new patients because she doesn’t want you to have to wait! The sooner your are diagnosed, the sooner you can experience a life without discomfort.
