Diagnosing And Treating Morton's Neuroma

Foot Exercises

Before trying any invasive procedures and even post-surgery, foot exercises can greatly alleviate pain and inflammation as stretching the foot helps to strengthen the arch of the foot. Foot and leg exercises that can significantly help include stretching the lower leg, calf, and Achilles muscles, and stretching the plantar fascia along the bottom of the foot. Exercises should begin slowly to help stop the nerve from becoming inflamed again.

Basic exercises that help include stretching the overall foot by rolling it back and forth over a bottle or ball on the floor, and to strengthen the foot, try making a figure-eight-pattern with the affected foot, leading with the big toe. To stretch the plantar fascia, an individual can take the heel in one hand and place the other hand under the ball of the foot and toes, and gently pull back the front of the foot and toes towards the shin bone.
