Abstract
Morton's neuroma, known also as intermetatarsal or interdigital neuroma, is a common foot injury that often curtails athletic activity. Nerve compression involving adjacent metatarsal heads and the transverse intermetatarsal ligament appears implicated in injury onset. Diagnosis is made clinically, and the condition typically causes initial symptoms of dull cramping or burning pain and more persistent sharp pain with nerve deterioration. Depending on injury severity, treatment is either conservative or surgical.
