Time to get help: With your symptoms, I would recommend that you see an orthopaedic surgeon for exam and xrays. There are a multitude of different diagnoses that could cause such sx. For example, if you are a runner, you may have a stress fracture. Get an appt. and good luck!

R I C E rest, Ice...: What has changed that you can attribute to the onset of this pain in your foot? Increased activity? Trauma? New shoes? Was the onset traumatic? You might need a X.ray to identify a fracture. Limit activity to tollerance
