Key Points

• This research aims to compare the effectiveness of manipulation and steroid injections in alleviating pain and improving functionality in patients with Morton's neuroma.
• Randomized control trial design
• Participants received either manipulation or steroid injection for Morton's neuroma treatment
• Self-reported levels of pain, discomfort, and functionality were measured.
• Manipulation resulted in significant improvements in pain levels compared to steroid injection
• Patients reported enhanced functionality after manipulation treatment
• Retention of benefits was clinically relevant for those treated with manipulation.
