See podiatrist: If the spurs are on the bottom most of the time the pain is caused by plantar fascitiis and not the spur itself. Arch supports, stretching, antiinflammatories, night splints etc can all help.

SUPPORT!: I'm assuming you mean a "calcaneal spur." there are many possibe reasons that you may have pain in the feet, (in you case the most likely diagnosis is plantar fascitis) but try arch supports like spenco polysorb (http://www.Spenco.Com/products/footcare/poly-sorb) and otc anti-inflammatories (like aleve). If these don't help, see a podiatrist.
