The bone in my foot is killing me!!!?

Question:O.K. you know the bone that kinda sticks out a little bit on the side of your big toe? Like where the joint is? well mine sticks out a lot!!! Stupid genetics!! anyway when I'm en pointe I have a really hard time about halfway through class because this part of my foot is killing me!! I feel like all my weight is there instead of being spread over all my toes like it is suppose to be, any suggestion of what to do. I already use " Bunheads Pro-pads", do I need a little spacer maybe? Will that affect my dancing?Thanks in advance and happy dancing!!

If you don't find soemway to cushion that its going to continue protruding, leaving you with a painful bunion. You may want to try a spacer to try alignment, or some loose lambswool to stuff in that space between the one and the shoe.
You may like "the big toe" by bunheads as an extra cushin that wont really detract from feeling the floor.
