Hurt Your Shoulder? Find a Non-Surgical Rotator Cuff Repair Option
When conservative therapy fails, surgery is recommended. Surgery involves releasing the ligament placing pressure on the nerve or removing the romaine. When the romaine is removed, permanent numbness at the toes will result, but toe function is not affected. In a new study published in the Journal of the American Podiatrist Medical Association, researchers found extra corporeal shock wave therapy to be a safe and effective treatment for Morton's romaine. Extra corporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a treatment which directs powerful sounds waves at an area of injury. The sounds waves create vibrations causing microtrauma to the tissues.
