Seeking help from podiatrist / foot specialist/ orthopedic specialist. who does neuromas?

7 doctors weighed in across 3 answers

Podiatrist : Go see your board-certified podiatric surgeon for this procedure. Ask the following: 1) does the nerve really need to be removed or can it just be decompressed? And 2) is there a mechanical problem with my joint complexes that can cause this? A proper second opinion would also help if you contemplate surgery. Conservative care with injections is the start point.
