Do you have to a cut a ligament to remove a painful neuroma?
Manage episode 422394652 series 2360074
I had a call from a patient who wanted to know about surgical removal of Morton's neuroma.
She said she went to the doctor. The doctor said, “Well, we can just take the nerve out. It is not a big deal. We do this all the time.”
The reason she called me for a second opinion was because the doctor told her we have to cut a ligament to take the painful nerve out.
She wanted to know if that was true, and whether or not that could cause a problem later.
