Its really really painful.

It could be a few things but it sounds like tenosynovitis which is inflammation of the sheath around the tendons in the foot. I had it once. Best thing for it is rest, ice and antiinflammatories. It is also possible you could have a stress fracture. If it gets worse or doesn't improve you probably need an x-ray.

it could be hurting from walking around a lot but i think you should go see a doctor if it continues to hurt.
