What is another word for true neuroma?
Pronunciation: [tɹˈuː njuːɹˈə͡ʊmə] (IPA) 
A true neuroma, also known as a Morton's neuroma, is a painful condition that affects the nerves in the foot. It occurs when the tissue surrounding a nerve between the toes thickens, leading to sharp, burning pain and a tingling sensation. While commonly referred to as a true neuroma, there are several other synonymous terms to describe this condition. Some of these include intermetatarsal neuroma, interdigital neuroma, or interdigital nerve entrapment. Regardless of the terminology used, the symptoms and treatment options for this condition remain the same. Seeking medical advice and exploring conservative treatments like special footwear, orthotic devices, and injections can provide relief and alleviate discomfort associated with a true neuroma.
