Have Neuroma In Feet. Taken Cortisone Shots, Alcohol Shots. Do Not Want Surgery. Your Opinion?
Hi,
I have neoroma in both of my feet 2 on right and 2 on left. I did the corisone shot one time and I heard they were not good to do. So I am doing the alcohol injections and a series of 7. I hear good and bad about his procedure. My doctor said a MRI does not show the nerve so I am scared and do not want to do surgery and want to my workouts again. Whats your opinion?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Neuroma is a rare tumor & occur in connection with the sympathetic system.
Since , you are having neuroma , but you haven't mentioned the type of neuroma.
The neuroma is three types .
While false neuroma is also there.
So upload the exact nature and type of disease .
It is very difficult to say any thing without complete history.
Good luck.
