Morton’s Neuroma Test

Morton's neuroma is often tested using physical maneuvers such as the Mulder's click test, where pressure is applied to the affected area to reproduce symptoms like pain or a clicking sensation indicative of the condition.

Conditions such as stress fractures, arthritis, bursitis, or even metatarsalgia (pain in the ball of the foot) can be mistaken for Morton's neuroma due to overlapping symptoms of foot pain and discomfort.

The classic symptom of Morton's neuroma is a sharp, burning pain or the sensation of standing on a pebble between the third and fourth toes, often worsened by walking or wearing tight shoes.
