hard lump on prox pip joint 4th & 5th toes

I have a hard lump on prox pip joint on 4th and 5th toes that started hurting 2 weeks ago, have referal to podiatrist but apt is 3 weeks away, round pads with hole do not help, cannot wear anything but sandals. I work as an ED nurse on my feet 12 hrs/day, if nothing presses on them they don't hurt, but am not suposed to wear sandals to work. I have never worn tight shoes, wear burks/ z coils/ and tennis shoes. what are they? how do I make them go away? I assume I need some sort of proceedure.
