Suggest Alternative Medication For Pain In Toe

Though I am taking Indomathicin (Indocin) one tablet a day for the past six days, I still have pain in my big right toe. I am avoiding all foods which trigger gout including drinks ie. beer, alcohol in general as well as soft drinks. Is there anything else I can do. I can t keep on taking Indocin because I have kidney problems (GFR 51) but my creatinine is normal.
