What is Morton’s neuroma?
Morton’s neuroma is a painful condition that affects the foot, specifically between the toes. It occurs when the tissue around the nerves that go to the toes thickens, causing severe pain and discomfort when walking. Patients often experience sharp pain in the front of the foot, a burning sensation between the toes, tingling in the affected toes, and a feeling of having a rock in their shoe as common symptoms.

Importance of Footprint Study.
Foot deformities often arise from changes in the way the foot supports and distributes the load when walking. To ensure effective and long-lasting correction, it is essential to analyze these movements and correct them through surgery when necessary.
A detailed gait study is key to identifying the exact cause of the deformity, making an accurate diagnosis and applying the appropriate treatment. Only in this way can we ensure that the surgery provides definitive results, preventing the deformity from reappearing over time.
