Morton's Neuroma

[beth1954]

I searched this site, but it came up with almost 200 hits on scar tissue.

I had surgery on my right foot a couple of years ago for plantar faciaitis. I had alot of scar tissue and had to deal with if for a long time--including physical therapy

This time I have an incision on the bottom of my foot (morton's neuroma) that is about 2 inches starting from right under my toes, and then running straight down. I feel like I am walking on a pencil or something because the scar tissue is so bad already. I massage it several times a day, but don't feel any results yet. I don't really have what you would call pain (just a little) it's just so uncomfortable walking when it feels like that. I'm going to have a total knee replacement probably this fall, and I wanted my left foot to be in great shape before that!

Any other miracle methods to speed that along?

The enzyms your body produces to soften and eventually eradicate scar tissue do not work as effectivly as we age.There are a few products on the market that you can take to replace these enzyms.
Search for Neprinol,should lead you in the right direction.

Good luck
