What Causes Sharp Pain At The Heels With Swelling In Toes?

I stand 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, in one spot all day at work. Hardly moving. The outer edge on the inside of my heel is very very tender, almost purple. I ll even get sharp pains during the day. My toes are swollen. Almost makes me want to cry some days, it hurts so bad. I ve tried soaking, massaging, and nothing helps. What can I do?! Please help!!!
