Hello,

Pain in the foot may be due to plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendinitis or a stress fracture or peripheral neuropathy etc.

Until examination is done for muscular or bony or vascular or neurological problems it is difficult to say what it is. Use tablet Tramadol with Paracetamol twice a day for five days.

Use cold and warm compression. If symptoms not improved please consult your orthopedician he will examine and take X-ray of foot then treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu , Internal Medicine Specialist
