I think everyone's experience is a little different. 30 years ago I injured my foot playing tennis, soft tissue injury. I developed MN 10 yrs ago. It was the classic pain involving the 3rd and 4th toe. Had an ultrasound scan and there was no thickening of the nerve. I found that positioning my foot a certain way during an attack helped. I purchased New Balance orthotics, saw a podiatrist and purchased custom orthotics; within a yr the pain went away. I've read that MN can go away on its own and so I don't know whether what I did helped, or it was just a matter of time. However, I have not stopped wearing the orthotics. I view it like chicken soup, can't hurt and I walk a lot.
