A benign soft tissue mass which forms on the nerve which runs between the metatarsals, in the ball of the foot. When two bones are squeezed together, they pinch the nerve that runs between them. The most common location for a neuroma to develop is the classic "Morton's Neuroma" location--involving the nerve that supplies sensation to the third and fourth toes. This is the location in over 80% of cases, with the nerve between the second and third toes involved in 15% of cases. This nerve lies deep in the foot, and represents joined branches from the medial and lateral plantar nerves.
