Hello good evening.
Based on the symptoms you have explained what i can suspect is a condition called as PLANTAR FASCITIS.
( but clinical examination should be done to confirm the diagnosis)
Plantar fascitis is a condition which is caused due to swelling(inflammation), stiffness in the plantar fascia of the foot
Causes- many ( eg: overweight, calcaneal spur, flat foot, long standing , walking, diabetes, hypothyroid etc)
Most commonly seen in females with body weight on the higher side.
Next Steps
Medications have a very minor role in this condition
- lifestyle modifications have to be done
1) change of foot wear, MCR footwear has to be used, both indoors and outdoors ( compulsory)
2) avoid long standing, walking barefoot until the pain subsides
3) apply any Pain relieving gel and massage for 10mins, immerse foot in Luke warm water for 10mins and do ankle pump exercises
4) take painkiller and anti-inflammatory for 10days irrespective of the severity of pain
5)physiotherapy- plantar stretching exercises, gastrocnemius and soleus strengthening exercises.
Health Tips
-Main is to change your footwear and finding out the underlying cause for plantar fascitis
- for analgesics and anti-inflammatory medication consult an Orthopedic surgeon( avoid self medication)
- clinical examination is required for confirming diagnosis
If pain does not subside by the above mentioned method.

Plantar fascitis is a notorious condition. Life style changes is most important
