Hello.
Thanks for posting your query.

According to your description, it seems to be soft tissue injury over right foot. As you can walk and put your weight, bone injury is less likely.

I advice you to apply ice packs over it. Avoid putting weight and rest well. You can take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin to reduce pain and inflammation.

Wishing you good health
Regards.
