Default Custom Orthotics

I saw a podiatrist for this last year. He said it was either Mortons neuroma or something else like bursitis. He said same treatment either way. I got custom orthotics and it went away in a few weeks. I think a cortisone shot was offered, but I didn't want that. In hindsight, I would take the shot, if I didn't want to spend the money on orthotics. He said I could stop using the orthotics when the pain goes away and use them again occasionally as needed, which I have.

I tried over the counter metatarsal pads which didn't help. Also tried over the counter Superfeet orthotics which helped a little but not enough.

Gooduck!
