Possibility: Do you frequently wear high heels? Does the pain occur more when you're not in heels? Long-term high heel wear can allow tendons to toes and heel bone to shrink/shorten so that walking without heels stretches those tendons and causes pain. Try gently stretching toes, ankles, achilles tendon. Nsaid will help if there is inflammation. Not better, see podiatrist.

Since there : Are many ossibilities including but not limited to tendonitits, neuritis, a bone spur or exostosis, it would be wise to visit a foot doc where a proper exam could take place including seeing you standing and possibly x-rating the foot.
