False
Explanation:
It is known as Morton's neuroma and not Romberg's. Morton's neuroma is the thickening of a nerve tissue that can develop in different parts of the body.
Morton's Neuroma, appears at the base of the third and fourth fingers. It is sometimes called intermetatarsal neuroma and is located at the base of the foot, between the metatarsal bones. Neuromas may also appear in other areas of the foot. Compression and irritation of this nerve causes thickening or dilation. This compression causes nerve swelling which can eventually lead to permanent damage to the nerve.
Anything that causes nerve compression or irritation can lead to a neuroma. One of the most common causes is the use of narrow-toed shoes, or high heels that push the fingers against the tip of it.
