Hello
There some common causes for such kind of pain. One is injury to foot whoch you must be knowing whether you have hurt your foot or not. Second is stress fracture which occurs in people who has work which require excessive walking. Third is plantar fascitis which is persistent.
The treatment would to go for xray of foot (AP and Lateral view) first. Second is to take tablet combiflam three tines a day. Third is to do ice foementation for 10minutes twice a day.
If possible visit an orthopaedician.
Thanks.
