Yes, I had that once, had to have 2 days off work 'cos I couldn't actually walk anywhere, it was that excruciating.

Painkillers and rest was all I could do.

 

I was afraid of that. I have googled it but was hoping to have a few pointers from people that have actually had it.

Your either wearing crappy shoes or been doing serious mileage or very overweight. I had it a few years ago on my right foot after doing a load of 10Ks, half and full marathons in a year. Stopped running for 4 mths and just cycled. Eventually I was whizzing around at 22 mph average :-). Get some orthotics made up to support the arch of the offending foot and get loads of rest.

I've just had orthotics made and that has eased the pain a bit. I'm not overweight and but do a lot of walking (2miles a day) in my suit shoes for work which have no cushioning. The orthotics don't fit in these though which is annoying.
