What Causes Right-sided Foot Pain And Swelling?

It s in my right foot, along the outside edge. Stinging sometimes, a little swollen, and a bit pink on the side. Hurts when I walk. Actually really hurts, then as I continue, I can walk better, but still painful. That s about all I have to describe it.
