Balls in foot that you have described are similar to knuckles in hand and pain over them is called metatarsalgia.
Difficult to ascertain the cause without having a look; need to see your footwear as well.

Consult online with clinical pictures of your foot from all angles (let someone else click them) alongwith your footwear. Will advice xrays after seeing them
