It seems to be 5th Metatarsal Base fracture called as " Jones Fracture "
Its not displaced you need to see an orthopaedic doctor near you.
To put a temporary plaster (Slab) for few days till swelling reduced.
Then once swelling reduced change plaster to complete plaster ( cast ) FOR 4-6 WEEKS.
STRICT ADVICE :-
NO PUTTING WEIGHT ON RIGHT FOOT AND WALKING .
WALK WITH SUPPORT EITHER WALKER OR CRUTCHES TO AVOID ANY PRESSURE AND MOVEMENT ON FRACTURED BONE
KEEP LIMB ELEVATED OVER 2 PILLOW FOR MAXIMUM TIME NEXT 4-5 DAYS ALONG WITH PLASTER SO THE SWELLING REDUCED.
AND MEDICINE.
