Hi,
Thanks for your query.
According to your description , pain, redness and swelling over your feet seems to be inflammatory in nature.
I advice you to give you rest to the feet, take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin 1tablet with food as and when required (upto 4 tablets daily) to reduce pain and inflammation and consult your doctor for thorough examination and rule out any infective cause.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
