Greetings all. I am benched due to a neuroma in my left foot. Has anyone had any success in recovery? The podiatrist says surgery is my next step (after some ultrasound, wraps and a cortisone shot). Am currently trying acupuncture with some relief but not great success. Thought I'd throw it out there for advice.
Thank you,
Beverly |

Thanks Loretta! Nothing quick so far. Been trying to recover for a few months now, since mid-summer. Crazy thing. |

have you seen a neurologist? I don't know if they could help. but they might have some light to shed on the mystery. are you able to get any exercise in? |

It's a Morton's neuroma, between 3rd and 4th metatarsal on left foot. Feels like when dentist hits a nerve on your tooth only shoots up leg. Worse when on feet so not much moving. Figure time to start stationary biking. Thanks. :) |

I don't have a neuroma however I have feet problems that could have become that. I've gotten relief from a chiropractor specializing in ankles/feet and a chinese massage therapst, I also do feet exercises and use correct toes. Improved my feet from 30% functioning to 70% in 3 months.

You've had success with other people changing your alignment so if you take responsibility and put in the work you won't have any problem in the future. Check out Egoscue. |

Hi Loretta! Our dogs are great, thanks. We've now have 3 Giants and our Mini Bull. They run, run, run in the back yard and all but the puppy do varying incline tm walks. Thanks for asking about them!! |
