Read below: If this condition has been ongoing for over 3 days and getting progressively worse, make sure to see your podiatrist as you need to rule out a possible stress fracture. If the area only has discomfort, than try wrapping the foot with an elastic bandage and taking otc anti inflammatory medicine.

Ice: If pain persists beyond a reasonable time a fracture is possible if she was wearing and type of heel or sharp shoe. Reasonable would be a week.
