avoid pressure on your big toe and foot. do regular exercise even if pain try swimming or bicycling they do not put pressure on toe. Loose and roomy shoes, high heeled shoes. Take Pain killers Operation depends on the shape of your foot,arthritis in the joint. operations may be trim parts of the joint osteotomy. operation may good for easing symptoms, but not in all cases. But it is not alwys perfect
