What Causes Morton’s Neuroma?
Morton’s neuroma often develops due to repetitive forefoot pressure, narrow footwear, or biomechanical stress that compresses the nerve between the toes.
How Metatarsal Pads Help
Metatarsal pads are positioned just behind the ball of the foot to help spread the metatarsal bones and reduce pressure on the irritated nerve.
Footwear & Activity Modifications
Wearing shoes with a wider toe box and avoiding high heels may reduce nerve compression. Supportive bracing may improve comfort during prolonged standing or walking.
Prescription & Tax Exemption (When Applicable)
Some structured foot supports may qualify as tax-exempt with a valid prescription in Canada. If you have a prescription, you can submit it for review and tax-exempt processing where eligible.
