Be seen: I would not hesitate to be seen. With that history, a stress fracture would be high in the list of potential causes.

Foot pain: If there's any swelling of the feet, there is a good possibility of stress fracture of one or more bones of the foot. Other possibilities are sprain or overuse as well as tendonitis. A podiatrist or orthopedic surgeon are best qualified to evaluate,advise and treat you. Appropriate xrays can be ordered. Get seen promptly because of the severity of your symptoms.
