First question did you have any injury (fall, hit your foot into something hard). There are several possibilities but since you have had this pain for the last few weeks with no help from analgesics, ice or the boot. I would suggest the following. Get an MRI of the foot. Possible differential diagnostics from your symptoms can be the following. 1) Plantar Fasciitis, Torn Achilles tendon or tendonitis. Heel spur, fracture. Treatment would consist of the following: Laser, Shoe orthotics, surgery if a tear, soft or hard casting of the foot if there is a fracture. You can soak the foot in a Epson salt bath, keep icing, use CBD cream. My suggestion would be to go either to a chiropractor or podiatrist or orthopedist. If you have a orthopedic clinic that allow walk ins I would suggest that for immediate evaluations, verses the emergency or urgent care.
