See your doctor: You should have a new xray done of the area to see what things look like. Then lots of antiinflammatories. I prefer the herbal kind as these are not problematic for liver, kidney and stomach problems as the medicinal kind are. My favorite is cats claw. You will need to take 3 caps three times daily till relief of pain the drop to 3 caps daily for maintenance.
