Hi,
To guide you properly there is need of an MRI scan of the affected part, as there might be a ligament issue. Get your MRI done and till then apply hot fomentation, wear soft cushion shoes.
Thank you. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Jaideep Gaver, Orthopedic Surgeon
