Foot Neuroma Midtown Manhattan at Family Foot Care Group

Foot Neuroma Midtown Manhattan

That ache in the ball in your foot may be much more serious than just from a long day of pounding the pavement. It can be a sign of Foot Neuroma. Dr. Steven Landman, DPM, and his trained staff at the Family Foot Care Group in midtown Manhattan can help take the pain off of your foot and put the spring back in your step.

A foot neuroma is caused by a pinched nerve in the foot, usually near the ball of the foot. The pinched nerved then becomes inflamed causing searing pain to wreak havoc on the patient. Normally, surgery is required to help alleviate the symptoms of foot neuroma.

The surgery is often simple. A small incision is made near the ailing nerve after a local anesthetic is applied. This surgery is normally done at the doctor's office. After a relatively short time, patients will quickly realize the difference in their strides. Patients may have to go up to three weeks walking on crutches but most are able to return to work in as little as a week.
