A neuroma of the foot describes what happens when nerves between the bones and ligaments in the ball of your foot, the area just before your toes, become pinched. The swelling of these nerves is most common at the base of the middle three toes.
Morton's neuroma is where there's a thickening of tissue around a nerve in your foot that's been irritated or damaged. The symptoms can often be eased with treatments you can try yourself.

Multiple neuromas are understood to occur when 2 or more neuromas appear on the same foot. The frequency and percentage of the neuromas has been reported according to the space affected and the feet with more than 1 interdigital neuroma.
Factors that appear to contribute to Morton's neuroma include: High heels. Wearing high-heeled shoes or shoes that are tight or ill fitting can place extra pressure on your toes and the ball of your foot. Certain sports.
Although 50% to 85% of patients obtain relief after primary excision, symptoms may recur because of an incorrect diagnosis, inadequate resection, or adherence of pressure on a nerve stump neuroma.
A fair percentage of Morton's neuroma surgery patients develop either recurrent neuroma or similar symptoms often due to neuroma stump formation. It is estimated that as high as 30% of Morton's neuroma surgery patients end up with post surgical pain.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.

You can confirm that these are the correct codes by checking the ICD-10-CM index entry for “Neuroma, Morton’s,” which points to G57.6-.
Excision: For excision procedures, be sure you use 28080 ( Excision, interdigital (Morton) neuroma, single, each ). Some coders erroneously report 64782 ( Excision of neuroma; hand or foot, except digital nerve ). If you check the AMA CPT® range guidelines for 64782, you’ll see this note: “For Morton neurectomy, use 28080.”
More than three injections to the same neuroma in six months must be supported by documentation stating why more treatment is expected to work. Dry needling is not covered. You should use G57.61, G57.62 or G57.63 for Morton’s metatarsalgia, neuralgia, or neuroma, in support of 64455 or 64632.
Podiatrists have a few different options for treating Morton’s neuroma, a painful condition affecting the ball of the foot. Because different services are possible, coders need to understand the various options and how to report them correctly to bring in accurate payment.
