Group Intervention Description Morton Neuroma + pes cavus Comparison of gait and foot pressure The effect of unilateral morton neuroma on gait parameters and foot pressure distribution in patients with bilateral pes cavus will be investigated. Foot pressure distributions and gait parameters of the patients; foot rotation, step length, stance phase percentage, swing phase percentage, cadence, velocity, rerefoot pressure, midfoot pressure and forefoot pressure will be recorded with Zebris FDM -T ( Force distiribution Measurement Treadmill ) system. Zebris is a name of company in German .

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Swing phase percentage 4 weeks Swing phase percentage (%) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Swing phase describes the phase of a gait cycle during which the foot has no contact with the ground. The unit is expressed as a percentage.
Foot rotation 4 weeks Foot rotation (degree), will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited - Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Aim of the system to assessment the angle between the longitudinal axis of the foot and the running direction. Negative value = inward rotation, positive value = outward rotation.Subtalar joint supination describes angulation in the negative direction and pronation describes the angulation in the positive direction.Unit of measure is degrees.
Step length 4 weeks Step length (cm) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Aim of the system analyzes gait of the patients. Step length describes the distance between the heel contact of one side of the body and the heel contact of the contralateral side. Unit of measure is centimeter.
Cadance 4weeks Cadence (steps/min) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical -Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Cadence is steps/minute. It is defined as the step frequency.
Velocity 4 weeks Velocity will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical -Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. The system measures average gait speed during the analyzed measuring interval. The unit is expressed as km/hr.
Foot pressure distiribution 4 weeks Foot pressure distiribution will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical -Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. The system evaluate the average maximum values reached in N/cm² for the three zones: toes, mid-foot and heel.
Stance phase percentage 4 weeks Stance phase percentage (%) will be evaluated by Zebris (Zebris Medical Limited -, Germany) FDM (Force distribution measurement ) System. Participants will walk barefoot on the Zebris FDM (Zebris Medical Limited, Germany) treadmill system. Stance phase percentage describes the phase of a gait cycle in which the foot has contact with the ground.The unit is expressed as a percentage.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Demographic data/patient height 4 weeks The height of the patients will be recorded in the evaluation form in meters.
Demographic data/patient body mass index BMI 4 weeks The BMI of the patients will be recorded in the evaluation form in kg/m\^2
Demographic data/patient weight 4 weeks The weight of the patients will be recorded in the evaluation form in kilograms.
Demographic data/patient age 4 weeks The ages of the patients will be recorded in the evaluation form.
