Blood work : What part of your foot hurts? Have you had recent blood work? You may have gout, a build up of uric acid crystals in your joints. You may also have a stress fracture which often times does not show up in X-ray right away. It’s important to go back to your pcp to get another X-ray done, and to get blood work.
