A member asked:

What is a prominent navicular tubercle at the medial aspect of the navicular bone? what is the treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Navicular is a bone: In the midfoot, if it is prominent it sticks out a bit. Treatment may include smart shoe selection so there is no rubbing, padding the area, or shaving the prominence in the operating room. (The latter done by the doctor, not by you of course)
