It will help for acute injuries and pains. If it's something that has been long-term, it may only help for a short period.
Sometimes soaking in cold water can help with swelling and associated nerve type of pain, but it is only masking an underlying problem. Have you seen a podiatrist to see if they can help you with topical ointments, physical therapy, or even pharmaceutical management?
