hi i am dr usman
well there can be a number of causes resulting in your condition.
1. if there is no history of trauma then it may be due inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid, bursitis, tendinitis
2. you need to take good anti inflammatory drugs to start with like diclofenac.
3. keep your feet elevated ona pillow while sitting and sleeping
4. some times gentle massage with luke warm oil and topical analgesic cream also helps
thanks
