Ice it: Ice it. Elevate. Anti-inflammatories and tylenol (acetaminophen). Some people with plantar fasciitis have an experience like that and never have pain again, once the acute pain goes away.

Let me try to help: Plantar fasciitis and heel spurs are difficult problem to handle, we start with anti-inflammatory medicine and heel pads, if did not help i recommend steroid injection the last resort is surgery.

See a physician: It is probably a good idea to have an evaluation by a foot and ankle specialist.

Possible rupture: Your history suggest a rupture (large tear) of the plantar fascia. See your ortho or sports doc for further evaluation. After an x-ray to make sure there's no fracture, a cast or boot is often used in treatment.
