Sounds like overuse injuries usually seen with running. For short-term, Aleve or Ibuprofen will help. Also get you some good, supportive footwear. You may look into a hiking boot or shoe- Salomon has some good options. If good shoes are out of the budget, at least get some good inserts.
 
Per our rules, you cannot seek and we cannot give medical advice, but as @STXmedic said, proper footwear is going to be key here.

If you continue having problems, make sure to see your doctor or a specialist.
 
I agree. You need to check the soles of your footwear as this determines how you land on the ground.

For your inquiry, try RICE- Rest, Ice compression and elevation. :)

What you need to do is take your name off of your signature, Courtney.
Think smart.
