My foot is really sore

Dear Jayda T here’s a burning pain in the ball of my foot when I walk. It’s getting worse. Patty, 45, Plymouth Dear Patty You may have a condition called Morton’s Neuroma where a nerve becomes irritated and thickened. You need to wear shoes that give enough space to your toes to reduce pressure. Trainers are a good choice. Resting, massaging your toes and an ice pack may relieve pain. Ask your GP to send you to a podiatrist (foot doctor). Take care of it and you could avoid the need for steroid injections or surgery.
