Brief Answer:
Could be retro calcaneal Bursitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi I am Dr Gopal Goel , Orthopedic Surgeon.
With your query I am not clearly able to understand if you had an injury.
The pain you are describing may be due to swelling behind the heel- called retrocalcaneal Bursitis.
I suggest pain killers, hot fomentation, local analgesic cream and Creppe Bandage application.
Please get X Rays of both feet AP and Lateral View( Lat view including Heels)
Thanks for the question. I hope to have answered your question. Please feel free to ask any other question.

Thank you Dr. How can i send you the photo, so that I can tell you the exact location. It is not behind actually , it is at the side of the feet. Also there is no swelling. It pains only when I press in that area.

This area of foot signifies a joint between first Metatarsal and phalanges, Commonly involved in Gouty Arthritis.
