If orthotics and steroid injections haven’t provided lasting relief, you’re not alone. Many people with plantar fibromatosis are still searching for a better option.
A clinical research study is now evaluating a new investigational approach for painful foot nodules caused by plantar fibromatosis.

Plantar fibromatosis, also known as Ledderhose disease, is a condition where firm, fibrous nodules develop along the bottom of the foot. These nodules can grow over time, making it painful to walk, stand, or wear certain shoes. Current options like orthotics, steroid injections, and surgery often provide only temporary relief — and surgery carries a high recurrence rate. This is why clinical research into new approaches is important.
