On my right foot in thr middle but on the side i have awful pain that at times goes into my ankle where the ball thing is?

Podiatrist: Hi. It could be several things such as plantar fasciitis, a metatarsal stress fracture, etc. You could get a more informed assessment by seeing either a podiatrist or orthopedist, who, with proper assessment, may also be able to offer treatment options.

Painful forefoot: Pain that radiates in the foot or ankle indicates the possibility of a nerve injury or a neuroma.
