This pain that you have could be an indication of a particular type of arthritis called gout (an example only).

I would recommend getting another opinion, preferably with a rheumatologist (a doctor that diagnoses and treats diseases and disorders of the bones and joints such as arthritic type conditions such as gout) to see what they say as well.
