Wharton’s neuroma

Filed Under Health 

 

It is very common for senior’s to have problems with their muscles and bones of their feet. This is a type of problem that comes with old age. However, not all of the pain that they experience is an effect of arthritis. Pain in the ball of the foot between two toes is linked to either soft tissue, bone or nerve. The common cause for nerve pain is called Wharton’s neuroma which is a big bundle of nerve tissue between the bones of the foot. This can cause a very unbearable and uncomfortable pain.

If you are having this problem, then you may have to consult with a podiatrist. Podiatrists are the ones who specialize in problems of the feet. Other possible options can include an Internist, a family practitioner or maybe an orthopedist.
