Suggest Treatment For Pain In Foot While Walking

July 9,2014 I had surgery for my osteoarthritis. The reconstruction surgery I had in my right foot is call Fusion. I have yet to return back to work January 2015 will be the sixth month. I knew it will take a process however I have five pieces of metal in this foot and pain when I walk. The pain is not like the pain I had before the surgery. I have been going to Phyically Therphy one day a week Acupuncture one day a week and I swim four days a week now for the last 3 months. I know I have inflammation but what else can I be doing? I m to return back to work Jan 4, 2015 and I m a grocery checker at a supermarket where I stand and stand and stand.
