Hello,
It is due to sprain.
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
Immobilize the affected foot for a few days.
Generally, the symptoms will settle in a couple of days, if persists you can consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
