ABSTRACT:
Methods of treating a host suffering from neuroma pain are provided. In the subject methods, a topical local anesthetic composition is applied to a keratinized skin site of the host proximal to the neuroma responsible for the neuroma pain. Preferably, the topical local anesthetic composition comprises eucalyptol in addition to an effective amount of a local anesthetic. The subject methods find particular use in the treatment of pain associated with Morton's neuroma.
