Feels like real bad stone bruise and bone protruding bottom of ball.Don t know what do do next was offered electrical treatment by podiatrist but exceptionally expensive and it may not work?
Surgery may be needed. I recommend consulting with an orthopedist and discussing about surgery. In the meantime, I would recommend trying Lyrica to help with the pain.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
