Have 5th metatarsal pain. mri showed nothing remarkable. my orthopedist is stumped. nothing is giving me relief. now what?

Pain: Glad you do not have a fracture. However, you do have metatarsalgia. I think it would be best to see a podiatrist. They focus on you foot dynamics. A lift or orthotic may help to relieve the panful stress on your bone.
