Commonly associated with Metatarsalgia (see previous condition), this condition is generally caused by entrapment of the interdigital nerve lying between the third and fourth metatarsal bones. Ball of Foot Pain (Morton's Neuroma) exhibits similar symptoms to Metatarsalgia, but may also cause numbness, tinglings and discoloration of the third and fourth (lesser) toes. Orthotics greatly assist in the early stages of Morton's Neuroma when damage to the nerve sheath is minimal. |

| Orthotics re-align the metatarsa.shafts and prevents interdigital nerve jamming. Severe fibrosis of the interdigital nerve may require surgery. However, orthotics may prevent further problems post-operatively. |
