I am haveing terrable pain in my left foot. I will wake up in the morning and be fine , but as the day whears on I will have pain. Its located in the back of the foot thear is no redness and no swelling. I also have flat feet. thank you

Hi Martha,

I do not have much to work on here other than it hurts as the day wears on and it hurts in the back of the foot.

My first thought would be an Achilles tendonitis. The second thought would be a pump bump. This would occur if you tend to wear dressy shoes on a regular basis, and would tend to occur more in shoes than when barefoot

I hope this helps.
