I woke up this morning and the pain in my foot is still really strong, i am unable to put a shoe on it. i am also unable to bear weight on my heel, what should i do?

Would contact your doctor and discuss possible X-rays, looking for fractures, heel spurs, etc. A podiatrist or an orthopedic surgeon may be needed for further intervention. Best this be addressed ASAP.
