Morton’s neuroma is a painful condition that affects the ball of the foot, typically occurring between the third and fourth toes. It involves the thickening of tissue around the nerve leading to the toes, often caused by compression and irritation. Symptoms of Morton’s neuroma may include sharp, burning pain in the ball of the foot, tingling or numbness in the affected area, a feeling of having a pebble or foreign object in the shoe, and discomfort that worsens with walking or wearing tight shoes.
