About forefoot pain: Forefoot pain is hard to assess without an exam. Some people find help with Tylenol (acetaminophen) or Motrin (ibuprofen) for 3 days, no weight-bearing plus cold packs for 3 days, wearing a non-flexible shoe, avoiding sports for a few days, etc... One can see in-person one's primary care doctor, or an orthopedist or podiatrist for an evaluation. Sometimes an online video consultation is adequate.
