In acute stages, avoid putting pressure on your foot by resting. Have you tried padding the joint for added protection and support? Wear orthotics shoes with padding, insoles or night also corrects and aligns for gait and biomechanics. To relieve pain and inflammation, apply a cold therapy 3 times per day and take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory.
