fat pad atrophy

I recently began feeling a “fullness” and pain when pressure was applied toe the “full spot” below my second metatarsal on the left foot.
It felt like a spur.
According to the doctor, I am suffering from fat pad atrophy(the price, I guess for 25 years of running), and what I am feeling is the second metartarsal.
Does anyone know about this condition? Does anyone have success with various types of inserts or some other treatment?
