Clinical Trial Summary

This study compares manipulative therapy to steroid injection in the treatment of Morton's Neuroma.


Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study is to establish whether manipulative therapy is an effective treatment for Morton's neuroma, a nerve entrapment in the foot. Steroid injection is the current gold standard conservative treatment for this condition. Therefore, a subject group shall be compared to a steroid injection intervention group. Outcomes will be compared using visual analogue pain scales -VAS, Foot Function Index questionnaires and algometric pressure threshold testing. An improvement in the manipulation group VAS of 20mm above the injection group shall be considered as the minimum worthwhile change as this has been identified as the minimum clinically important difference in pain between treatment groups in visual analogue pain scales. ;
