Specializes in Podiatry

Pops: Could be a lot of things, including dislocation of a joint, tendon, or ligament. Also could be a tear of a tendon or ligament. Lastly, it could be a fracture. I would have to know where exactly in the foot it is tender. I would also get an x ray. In the meantime, rice therapy (rest, ice, compression, elevation) until you get in to see a podiatrist.
