I use the motrin and ice method a lot.
I would suggest seeing a different doctor. My podiatrist says that a lot of doctors still subscribe to the theory that some pains are just the way of the world, and you just have to grin and bear it. But he treats pain more aggressively and finds out what's wrong and makes it go away. He will even go to surgery to physically relocate a nerve fiber, if necessary. From now until the season starts is a long time. I think you could at least try to find another approach that might give you relief. Are you Scott_61 because that's how old you are? You've still got at least 10 good years left, if you can claim them. Go for it!
