What Causes Severe Pain In Heel And Foot Arch?

I am having pain in my left foot. it started as a cramping in my arch at night. Then when I get up I am having a very bad pain in my heel an can barely walk. After I am up on it for awhile the pain is not nearly as bad. I would like to know what is causing this problem, and what I can do to help with natural foods, etc. rather than taking pain medications.
