Morton's Neuroma
posted by Pedram Aslmand, DPM, FACFAS on 2009-10-29According to a new study on Morton's Neuroma treatment, published in Musculoskeletal Imaging performed from 2004 to 2008, 84% of patients had complete pain relief with five to seven injections of alcohol into the enlarged nerve.
This is very close to the succes rate our office in Long Beach has been noticing. The treatment is very safe and effective in reducing the size of the entrapped nerve. The procedure requires no down-time, incision and is done under local anesthesia with ultrasound guidance.

Re: Morton's Neuromaposted by Tom on 2009-11-30Hello a friend of mine works for Aetrex. They have been making custom orthodics and insoles for years now. I just wanted to know if you have any experience using or prescribing these. And also, they are making shoes now and I wanted to see if you have any experience with them at all. Thanks Thomas Schick (714) 308-5184 |
Re: Morton's Neuromaposted by Pedram on 2009-12-01Hello, We do prescribe Aetrex shoes. I use a different custom system for the fitting of the orthotics. I have great results with our custom inserts and the Aetrex shoes. Dr. Aslmand |
