I have been suffering with what I believe to be metatarsalgia in my left foot for a few weeks and despite trying different exercises it is not improving and is starting to impact on my day to day life.  Can anyone recommend someone who could help me around the Puerto de Mazarron area?

Hi, I'm suffering from it at the moment so I sympathize.Daft question I know but have you seen your doctor? You may find it's not metatarsalgia but a thing called Morton's foot or toe.My doctor suggested I get a metatarsal pad from the farmacia,they sit on the ball of the foot and hook over the big toe.I also use ice packs for 20 mins.Ive found the best thing is a foam pad I mad myself from foam I put just behind the ball of my foot to relieve the pressure one the joint.

Hope this helps a little bit.

Thank you for responding. I have just bought the insoles and have been doing ice pack treatment for a couple of weeks. I have been using a gel pad to help but it is very frustrating as I cannot walk far without pain. Hopefully it will improve with time. Thanks again.
