@ruthblaze Here's what I've been told for arthritis in my big toes: Foot massage; from a seated position, roll a tennis ball under your foot for the length of your foot; standing but holding onto the back of a chair, raise your heels up and down. Follow exercises with foot soak in hot water with epsom salts for 10-20 minutes, then dry and massage with a good lotion- maybe with CBD. Anti-inflammatory diet and drink anti-inflammatory teas like ginger, turmeric, black cherry.
