I Have Pain On The Top Of My Foot Near

I have pain on the top of my foot near the 2nd and 3rd toes. I also have swelling and varicose veins on the inside of my foot and ankle. My Dr says the swelling is from the varicose veins and says use ice, and compression stockings and to raise foot when resting. So I am doing this and it feels better. But then I move around just to do dishes or normal day to day activities and it hurts. It also hurts on pressing in that area on top of foot. I have been sore a week now and wondered if I should go back and see my dr again or a podiatrist ...or just keep doing what I a doing ......not sure what it is
