Suggest Treatment For Severe Foot Pain

Having severe pain in right foot. Was fine this morning, came to work, sit at desk job. Got up about 3 hours ago and the right side of my right foot feels like it needs to crack if that makes any sense. Limping when walking as very difficult to bear weight. Almost feels like a Charlie-horse
