Hi
Thanks for posting your query.
There are many conditions which can explain your problem. Common among them are Gout, Vitamin D deficiency or osteoporosis.
You can take a over the counter pain killer like combiflam or tyelenol for pain relief. You can also get hot compresses 2-3 times a day.
But I also recommend you to get certain tests to check the cause of your problem.
In the regard I recommend the following tests. Kindly revert back with reports.
Serum Uric acid, Serum Vitamin D 3 and X ray foot .
Hope this information was useful to you. Any clarification feel free to ask.
Regards.
