If you have not seen a podiatrist yet I suggest you do. They can do x-rays and order an MRI if needed. Some foot problems can be alleviated by prescribed orthotics and or physical therapy.

I have Morton neuromas. I had removal surgery of first two neuromas at same time. Later I had a third one and went to a different podiatrist and he suggested physical therapy. My therapist did dry needling, massage and used a few ancient tools on my foot. It worked very well. I am now in my latter years and have arthritis in the foot all across base of my toes. I could have surgery, but the surgery has a long recovery. When the pain gets very bad I use a TENS Unit to help.
