When you have two painful problems in different parts of the same foot, things can get complicated.
I recently had a call with an injured runner with a couple of different problems.
On the outside of his foot, between the third and fourth toes, he has a painful neuroma. The other problem is that he's got bursitis. The inflamed bursa is in a completely different place, no where near the irritated nerve.
When a runner has two injuries, like a neuroma on one side of the foot and bursitis on the other side of the foot, which one is worse?
Which one should you pay attention to first?
Well, that's a great question and that's what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run podcast.
