Seek help. : It is important to rule out more serious injury such as a fracture. You should be examined and possibly receive i agnostic tests such as an x-ray.

Need more info: What part of the foot? What type of pain? What induced the pain? Try a different type of shoe in case it is due to a pinched nerve. You may also try orthotics and if that does not help, it will be time to see your doctor.
