Yep, have it in both big toes. 7 years ago I mainly wore (still do)

running trainers, so good nike trainer arched up will do a fair amount of the work for you

Best advice to beat it and keep moving, is go to a pharmacist and get 10% ibuprofen, but get non branded as ibuleve is expensive, or get this User Posted Link

This will beat the swelling episodes. Often you'll find it better to put this gel on at night, and it will work over night and you won't have huge swelling episodes

Also, the painkilling in the gel will give you the bravery to walk through it
