What Causes Pain Under The Arch Of Foot With Feeling Of Swollen Ankle?

My left foot started giving me pain on underside of arch. Today the pain became more aggressive which I initially put down to being on my feet all day in work. The pain started to rTravel above my ankle like a swelling pain. When I got home I massaged the arch area of my left foot & it felt like I had a lump about inch wide deep below skin. No swelling obvious looking at it externally. It is very sore when you compress it. When I raise my foot following any short period of weight on it, it takes 5 mins to calm down to some degree. I checked my right foot too but no such lump apparent & no pain .
