get new boots.

but really, take them to a bootfitter or better yet THE bootfitter that fitted yours, and ask him whats up and what a solution is. they might tell you you need new boots, which would suck.

they can stretch the shell on the outside edge of the foot and the toebox. just take them to sport chalet and tell them you bought them there.

Go to a bootfitter. No-one can tell what the problem is without seeing your feet and boots.
