I had surgery 25 years ago. Nerve that was removed was like a piece of spaghetti on each end and about the size of my thumb in the middle. Numbness isn't a problem. I wore combat boots and cycling shoes for years before the surgery. Not wearing combat boots wasn't an option, thus the surgery. I had used metatarsal pads for a few years before that. Best advice for just cycling is to loosen your shoes at the first sign of the "fire foot".
