Brief Answer:
Need to rule out bony abnormality.X ray will be helpful
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.
I understand your query and concern.
The symptoms in your case could be due to plantar fascitis/localized tendinitis of the foot muscles.
Flu has nothing to do to this kind of pain.
This can be controlled by analgesics like Ibuprofen 600 mg twice a day under medical prescription.
Additionally an xray of the right foot AP and lateral view will help to rule out any bony abnormality.
Thank you.
