The symptoms you describe could be related to gout, which is caused from a buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints. I've use allopurinol daily and for flare-ups, you can take colchicine. Both are prescription drugs.

After 3 episodes of gout, I was taking both of those medications to prevent it from coming back. Now I'm only taking allopurinol to control the uric acid level in my blood.
Gout has to be one of the most painful conditions I've ever had to deal with.
