that all depends on the extent of the neuroma and how much pain you are currently experiencing. Orthotic therapy goes after the cause of the mechanical issue which may incite the pain, so in a way it is approaching the pain indirectly (long term focus). make sure you communicate w/ your doctor on the level of pain you are having so that if they decide it is appropriate they may also choose to address it more directly. I think orthotic therapy is a great treatment regimen
