This is because of plantarfascitis which is the inflammation of the cushion like structure present in your heel. Pain occurs generally after a long resting period. And after sometimes it becomes less in intensity.
Next Steps
Go for physiotherapy.. Ultrasonic therapy +wax therapy +some stretching exercises will be helpful.
Health Tips
At home.. Silica gel cushions , hot water fomentation +pain killer gel+frequent ankle movements. No hanging of legs.

Agree with Dr Patil & Dr Chauhan. This is plantar fasciitis in all likelihood. Please follow the excellent advice already given by them. Dr M Vashishtha FRCS, www.dr-MV.com
