I find my biggest neuroma agitator is flexing my toes when I keel. You show this in your video at 4:40 when your left foot is being tremendously flexed compressing the neuroma. Doing this greatly inflames my neuroma.
Very true and you can absolutely do this exercise in a different position. You could have the front foot up on a chair so that you are just standing on your back foot. Thanks for the comment. I should have mentioned that in the video
Thank you so much! I had a knee replacement a few months ago and since then have had to wear shoes constantly on the non surgical side. Everything has been affected. I usually wear Fitflops all the time and worked well but since surgery have had to wear sneakers which I hate
Thank you! Great video! Love these more proactive treatment options. How do I not give up activities that require direct pressure on the ball of the foot? I can't figure/find out how to modify or strengthen to keep form. Do I just have to give up doing these activities with proper ball of foot form or is there hope of strengthening my foot to allow for continuing?
So happy you liked it! There is always hope! In the interim, you could always try finding footwear that gives more cushion or support during these specific exercises. Then as you continue to strengthen and mobilize the foot and toes, maybe you will notice you don't need the cushion as much. It is definitely a journey and takes consistency!
Do you have a video for pst bunion surgery. My joint where the bunion was fixed over a year ago and I still have not gained full ROM. I also developed Morton’s neuroma after having the surgery. I did go to PT. She helped with my ankle strength and ROM but did little to help the big toe ROM.
Here's a video I have for toe mobility for bunions. It isn't specific for post surgery, but you could definitely try it out: th-cam.com/video/JQmtULDxMAA/w-d-xo.html We also have an amazing Barefoot Mini Course that is all about foot, toe, and ankle health. It would be amazing to help you start to work on any restrictions you might have in your feet: jen.health/barefoot You could also take an extra discount with code OPTIMAL10
I have the same problem like you, I have 2 neuromas, and after 4 injections the doctor said that I need a surgery. Actually I don’t want surgery, and I’ve started to search videos like this to do some exercises to decrease the pain, it doesn’t fix the problem but it helps a lot, and of course the shoes that you use is really important, you have to use a wide shoes, avoid tight shoes. Also, I bought a set of orthopedic insole, so the shoes plus the insole and exercises and I can postpone the surgery, of course sometimes I feel pain but not like before, I feel like 30% pain.
I had a an ultrasound guided cortisone injection that helped a lot for almost a year. Don't get a cortisone injection in a doctors office without ultrasound. I was told by this doctor and a podiatrist I trust no matter what another doctor tells you not have surgery Radiofrequency ablation surgery. It can go very wrong. I am going to try these rubber sock things I saw in this video as there is less risk. Good luck!
@@kelcp330TRY TO AVOID THAT SURGERY!!! You may regret it. I’ve read a lot about it, and many say the pain is much worse afterwards!!! And, I’ve read they grow back!! Please reconsider surgery!!
Blessings in an abundance of the faith. I salute you. 😘🙏Grace and peace be unto you and to this place. God bless you. 🤍🤍🤍🌈🌈🤍🤍🤍. Thank you. Will you believe and receive Jesus Christ as your lord and personal saviour??? I do. 🤍

Would those toe spacers from pedicures be sufficient?
yeah! or socks even!
Have you tried "Happy Feet" Socks? I have a pair and feel they help.
I have not yet! I'll have to check them out!
Water only fast for 3 weeks solve this problem and no more pain, praise the Lord.

Mine is painful, and I need steroid injections. My podiatrist wants to remove the nerve. Can this be treated without surgery?
Unfortunately, we are unable to comment on surgical recommendations but there are generally things we can do to help our symptoms!

Should not have any pressure on rear foot like that, that increases chances if irrigation of opposite foot.
Are you talking about how I'm sitting on the floor? Yeah definitely make sure you are sitting in a comfortable place for yourself.
