Severe Pain In Knee On Wearing The Air Cast On Broken Toe. Can I Just Tie A Bandage?

I broke my second toe on my foot 4 weeks ago. I have been wearing a air-cast given to me by the doctors. I usually have pain in the knee and after wearing the cast the pain is going to severity. Is it okay to take off the air-cast and just tie a bandage around the toe. If not then what to do to reduce the pain in the knee, even when wearing a air-cast.
Thank you and give me a good advice
