Last resort: Is surgery. See your family doctor, podiatrist, foot and ankle surgeon. "cortisone" injection can provide some relief. Learn how to prevent it from getting worse. Specific exercises can help. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy may be tried.

Bone spurs: That is quite a wide topic. Bone spurs range from small , but painful, spurs on toes that can be addressed via minimal incision surgery, to larger spurs like heel spurs and haglund's deformities that are more conventional in nature. Circulatory status determines surgery or conservative care. Seek the help of a podiatrist to guide you with what needs to be done. Good luck !
