The first thought, simply because of its frequency of occurrence is plantar fasciitis. But you haven't really given enough details to conclude this simply on the basis of your statement. Plantar fasciitis is one of the most commonly discussed topics on this forum, and many, many comments are available through the search facility on the top menu of this site. You might read them in hopes of obtaining additional knowledge.

However, it is the rare diagnosis that a lay person can assuredly establish merely by reading symptoms, and I would firmly advise that you seek both diagnosis and treatment from a podiatrist or other qualified doctor rather than making decisions and acting on the possibly incomplete and/or errant information which is so often available on the Internet.

Forums such as this may be worthwhile for giving you some insight and things to consider, and to hopefully point you in the right direction for definitive professional treatment. But comments, even from qualified professionals who participate here without the ability to physically examine or to interact with the personal contact generally required for medical care, should not be thought of as definitive advice which is necessarily relevant to any individual's specific and possibly unique condition.
