What Causes Foot Pain With Swelling On Top Of Foot?

The top of my foot hurts, just to touch. My foot is swollen too up to my ankle. It feels like when you get a really bad sunburn on the top of your foot and it hurts to touch it or try to extend it. This has been for at least 2 days. May I add that I am also very overweight. Gout? Infection? Blood clot?
