My wife has been diagnosed with Mortons Neuroma in the right foot. She has been advised surgery. As I understand Cryo surgery is the latest in the line of treatment for this problem. Is there any hospital where Cryo surgery is being performed for this problem. Can a reference to a doctor be given?
Dear Brigadier TC Abraham,
Morton's Neuroma is a painful condition affecting the nerves in the foot, and if conservative treatments such as orthotics, corticosteroid injections, or physical therapy have not provided relief, surgery is often considered.
Cryosurgery (Cryoablation) is indeed an emerging, minimally invasive treatment for Morton's Neuroma. It works by freezing the affected nerve to reduce pain and inflammation while preserving function. Compared to traditional nerve surgery, it has a lower risk of complications and ensures faster recovery.
This procedure is performed in both private and government hospitals. Some renowned hospital chains that offer this treatment include Manipal, Apollo, Narayana Health, Max, and Fortis.
We recommend consulting with a foot and ankle specialist or an orthopaedic surgeon specializing in nerve-related foot conditions. They can guide you on the best available treatment options and whether Cryosurgery is suitable for your wife’s case.
Would you like assistance in exploring specialists or hospitals in your preferred location? Please let us know how we can further assist you.
Wishing your wife a smooth recovery and good health.
