My go to after girls nights out dancing was icy hot on the soles and socks to bed. Never had sore feet in the morning once I started that. Not sure if it will help you or if icy hot is ok by your doc but if it is, its worth a shot. Obviously overnight wouldn't help but maybe for an hour or so around noon?
I made up a foot spray, it has peppermint oil and water in a spray bottle and when my feet ache I'll put them up and spray a little on each foot. The cooling sensation of the peppermint oil helps, for me it feels pretty good.
I'm having terrible plantar fascia type pain in my feet- what helps me is either rolling a golf ball under your foot or rolling a frozen water bottle under your foot. And elevate as much/when you can!

I've had Plantar Fascia pain before pregnancy and my dominant foot is struggling big time during pregnancy.. This helps! A tennis ball will work also.
As for the general foot pain I just try to elevate my feet at night (helps with the swelling that has started too..) and ask my husband for a massage (works about 25% of the time. Haha.)
Generally... as long as I'm moving, I'm Ok. However, if I sit for any period of time and then get up, my ankles and hips make me feel like I'm 90! Last night I laid in bed with a warm rice sock under my ankles and one on top... it worked like a charm and they didn't even hurt at all today! Soooo, I'm currently laying in bed with my rice socks on my ankles and one under my hips! Hoping it helps my hips too!
