She said they treat them with a treatment where they inject alcohol into the nerve root ........... Anyone ever heard of this?
I have seen posts (on another board) of others who have had this done.
It seems to be a common treatment by podiatrists.(or at least more than one
has mentioned either having it done or was going to have it done).
But I don't understand why they don't do this first, rather than the surgery.
It seems to me, that some surgical podiatrists can't tell the difference
between PN and Morton's Neuromas.
I've heard of more than one case of unnecessary surgery
because of mis-diagnoses. PN was the cause, not a neuroma.
when they cut, couldn't find anything.
It even made things worse, permanently.
