In my opinion physiotherapy is the answer to all your questions...go for few sessions of physiotherapy and do hot fermentation.. if you do exercises in painful conditions then your pain might get increased..so kindly go for few sessions of physiotherapy..before that you can do some blood test like uric acid vitamin d vitamin b 12 and calcium...these values can also be deranged in the condition like yours... get well soon..take care...
