I had it in my right foot many years ago. After months of fooling with it, I went to an orthopedic doctor and he suggested, in order, 1) custom orthodic; 2) cortisone shot; and 3) surgery.

Had the custom orthodic made and it was the best $125 I ever spent. The tech who made it said it would feel like I had a potato in my shoe, which it did at first. After a couple of weeks, he built it up even higher, and at some point, I was pain free. Never needed step 2.
