Morton neuroma

Symptoms of a Morton neuroma include hyperesthesia of the toes, numbness and tingling, and aching and burning in the distal forefoot. Pain radiates forward from the metatarsal heads to the third and fourth toes. It is aggravated by walking on hard surfaces and wearing tight or high-heeled shoes. Physical examination reveals tenderness in the plantar aspect of the distal foot over the third and fourth metatarsals; compressing the forefoot reproduces the symptoms.
