Neuroma and running shoes

Anyone who's had the experience of wearing a pair of bad shoes and visited a Podiatrist or an Orthopedic has an idea just what nueroma is. Neuroma is when the small nerves of your third and fourth toes swell so bad that you can feel the whole pain in the entire sole of your foot. Actually, you won't feel the pain at first because the third and fourth toes start out as feeling numbed. Sometime later, pain slowly creeps in with the numbness and all of the stinging sensation of foot burning with pain, will be felt in the entire sole. The pain isn't constant though since it can be gone one second and be back the next. Even in one's sleep, a person afflicted with foot nueroma can be awakened by a sudden shooting and stabbing pain.

This kind of affliction is often experienced by women because of their penchant for high heeled shoes but it's also common among men who wear shoes that are too tight for comfort at the toe box area. Some runners also acquire neuroma if they are overpronators and are not wearing the right kind of running shoes specifically designed according to an overpronator's foot structure. An overpronator's foot structure can be placed under great stress if their arches are flattened by their weight once they stand up.

What doctors and podiatrists recommend is to wear shoes that have enough anti-shock insoles or cushioning at the heels and at the arch to provide midsole support. Now if you're going to ask at forum sites what most runners recommend to those who have these problems, they will proudly tell you of their New Balance running shoes.
