It sounds like you have seen a doctor, so I won't suggest that.

Having been a dancer my whole life, and with over 20 years of that spent on pointe, I have horrible feet! However, over the years I learned to take care of them the best I can by doing a few simple things. I eat bananas for the potassium to prevent cramping; before I get out of bed in the morning I flex and point my feet for about 5 minutes; I keep a tennis ball or golf ball handy and roll it under my bare feet whenever I can for a few minutes; and I usually give myself a foot massage with peppermint lotion at night.

All these things were recommended by either my chiropractor or massage therapist, and they seem to be working just fine.

Good luck!
