Discussion: Night Splints

Have you considered the night splint approach?
If not, an interesting log to read in any case.

When I was a kid, maybe 4 or 5 it was the fashion for UK doctors to diagnose knock knees and then prescribe night splints. I had them for a while and hated them and I am not sure that 1) I had knock knees & 2) that they would have helped

Do doctors still torture small children in that way?

Hi Rach Sorry to hear about your feet problems. Sounds bad. Do you know Toni Brown? She has just had surgery for a morton's neuroma.

Thanks Nat. It's not a lot of fun at the moment. I'm going to talk to the sports dr tomorrow about surgery. I've heard the name, but don't know Toni Brown. I'd be keen to know what she thinks of it. What I've seen researching on the internet there is a good success rate, something like 90%, which suggests it is worth doing.

Pretty sure Tooms has had surgery for Morton's neuroma at least once.
