Ummm, not that I know of.
Rest, wait, find a way to give your foot a mechanical advantage (brace or insoles or good shoes).
Ionto or steroids can work at inflammation, but won't eliminate the cause of the inflammation. Sometimes they weaken tissues. I'd go after mechanical assistance before chemical assistance.
And if things just don't seem right, hunt down a specialist. (I like specialists. I can pick up on obvious stuff, but when I'm really stumped I love specialists, cuz they pick up on the subtle stuff!)
