A neuroma is a small knot of nerve endings, which can form when a nerve has been cut.
What causes a neuroma?
A neuroma is really an attempt by the damaged nerve to heal itself, but something goes wrong with its attempts. A neuroma can form in the tissues around the knee after an injury or after knee surgery.
