Neuroma
Neuromas are a swelling in the nerve that can sometimes cause permanent damage. They are typically caused by compression or trauma.
The doctors at Great Lakes Foot & Ankle Centers are experienced in accurately diagnosing and treating neuromas, which takes a particular skill.
Diagnosis
A physical examination and a thorough history of your complaint is important, because there are conditions that mimic neuroma pain but are not caused by the same problem.
Treatment
Treatments vary widely from injections to orthotics to surgery.
