Heel, foot and calf pain, Gout or NOT?

I've had left heel pain and left foot pain for about 8 months esp. when I stand for 5 mins or more. I also feel hot water is flowing inside myleft  calf muscle after I walk or when stretching, like applying clutch in car. I feel my left feet is swollen(feels  like stepping on a small water balloon under my feet)when after I wake up in the morning. I also have had high uric acid around 8.4 for around a year but rarely have gout related inflammations. The gout like inflammations come when I'm mentally stressed ,are tolerable and go away after 12 hours. The rheumatologist did a few more blood test which r normal,so I don't need to take uric acid tablets and prescribed physiotherapy only. uric acid tablets are supposed to be taken for entire life, which I want to avoid. Went to physio sessions for about a week which helps for about a week but the pain comes back. pain is mainly in the foot. nowadays I am feeling it in my left hip bone which lifts the thigh and the buttock muscle also.
