mortons neuroma

I have a mortons neuroma in my left foot between second and third toe.
I have had 3 cortizone shots and was putting off recommended surgery, and then got a stress fracture in foot from walking differently to protect neuroma.
I have read there is a new type of surgery for the neuroma.
What does this involve,and what is recovery time versus old method.Any help you can be would be greatly appreciated..
THANKS

    You are asking about the endoscopic release of the intermetatarsal ligament for relieving the pressure on a neuroma. I do not do this surgery therefore I can not compare the results to the way I have done neuromas for many years. Sorry I can’t be more help. Perhaps someone else who has had it done can post for you.
