Bilateral Plantar Metatarsal Pain (Barry Mullen, DPM)
RE: Bilateral Plantar Metatarsal Pain (Barry Mullen, DPM) I agree with Dr. Mullen, however don't ever rely strictly on MRI results to be positive for a neuroma. Even though radiologists swear they can see them on MRI, I have excised many neuromas where the MRI is negative. Rely on clinical findings and be a good historian. You may want to consider a novacaine/steroid injection for diagnostic purposes as sometimes even the slightest bit a relief points towards a neuroma,
