@drhannahleedpm: Feels like a pebble under the ball of your foot, but there is nothing in your shoe? That is not imagination. It is the textbook symptom of a Morton's neuroma, a thickened nerve between the third and fourth toes. Early on it only hurts in tight shoes. Left alone the nerve scars, the pebble feeling turns constant, and wider shoes stop helping. It hits women about eight times as often as men. Load-driven, not age-driven. It gets missed because it hides inside "ball of foot pain." A neuroma is sharp and electric between two toes, not a diffuse ache across the whole ball. Ask whether anyone has pressed between your metatarsal heads instead of on top of them. Follow for more on how feet actually fail. #mortonsneuroma #footpain #podiatrist #footdoctor #forefootpain
