For now you can look up high Dye strapping - a rigid tape strapping to wear for walking and training, relative rest (as much rest as possible - sit out wherever possible and if pain after 3 min in training do not continue or compensate) and icing after training, heat therapy at night (wheat bag etc) , plus non steroidal antiinflam. from chemist (if chemist oks it for you).
