Morton’s Neuroma
Yes! I might pm you to hear more about this actually. I've yet to have a proper chat with anyone who's actually had the surgery.
It's honestly made me pretty miserable at points. Last summer there were times when it was constantly painful to walk and had me feeling quite hopeless. I'd realised that it would flare up to its worst during the summer months when I'm on the uplift most weekends. The advice I was given was "stop doing whatever antagonises it".
The prospect of potentially giving up riding left me quite down since theres not much else I enjoy as much as farting about on a bike.
After a lot of misery, I realised that my narrow tight fitting Five Tens were potentially part of the problem. It's certainly got a lot better since I stopped using them a few months back, but the pain still comes and goes.
Its strange, sometimes I go weeks with no bother then out of the blue I can barely walk.
My podiatrist seems very reluctant to go down the surgery route and has said that its not a guaranteed long term fix.
Morton’s Neuroma? I’ve had one removed from each foot, some time ago now. I do think the one in my left foot might be reappearing however.
