Hi doctor, my left instep foot has swollen and hurt when wake up in the morning, what is the cause root and the medicine? thank you

It depends: Without an exam, it is difficult to tell. Sounds like posterior tibialis tendon pathology or possibly plantar fasciitis. You should see a podiatrist to see if you need support, immobilization or stretching. The cause dictates the treatment plan.
