Hi there,

I had a patient come in today, 55yo female with a painful medial foot, basically only when she uses the clutch or foot parking brake in her car. Pain is sharp/shooting, and doesnt occur regularly. It usually resolves within minutes. The location of pain is along the dorsal 1st metatarsal, but was unable to be palpated. There was no pain on active/passive/resisted movement only some slight discomfort on DF. She is able to do as much walking/activity as she wants without reproducing the symptoms
Biomechanically, the foot was abducted compared to the left but other than that no abnormalities. Ankle DF was restricted.
I am suspecting medial plantar nerve entrapment, but am keen to hear others' thoughts. Is there much conservative treatment for this if it is a nerve entrapment? Will stretching/improving ROM help symptoms?
One option was to get an automatic car :p
