Brief Answer:
You need to get x ray of the feet

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that you may be having soft tissue or bony injury of the heel. I would suggest you following.
1. Get x ray of the foot as soon as possible.
2.Keep your feet elevated over a pillow. Do not keep in hanging. Also ice application is useful.
3.Take Brufen tablet for pain and swelling.
4.Share that x ray report with me. If there is any fracture then you might need splinting. Blood collection may need to swelling also.
I hope this answer will be useful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
