Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Pain at foot not responding to antibiotic may be due to other causes
1.plantar fasciitis.
2. Bone fracture.
3.Bone spur.
4.Flat feet.
5.Arthritis
6.cellulitis.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.
Elevate the limb use cold and worm compression if symptoms not improved.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
