excruciating pain in the foot?

excruciating pain in the foot?feels like it is shattered inside. right about from my ankle down. the worse pain i have ever had. Doctor said bones look good and gout test was neg. Now he is saying to check back in a week. i can't go another week with this pain what else could it be? So, that I can make suggestions for him to check for. I asked if it might be rhumatoid arthritis but he said it wasnt likely since i was not displaying other symptoms of the it?

I suggest you go to the Hospital and they will take xrays and all that to make sure you are ok.

Have you been to places where you could have gotten bitten by a Tick? Do you have any visible bites, or red bruising tender area, etc...? If it's not gone in a week then get checked for Lyme Disease. It is probably not RA, or a bone spur if they checked via XRay..? Take 2 or 3 Advil 3 times per day maximum dosage for your age & body type. Stop drinking sodas such as Diet Coke or Pepsi, start drinking water. Try to avoid rich red meats, if your a drinker cut back and drink only beer, no red wine. If this persists, get more tests. Also in a week, try taking Omega 3 fish oil soft gels per the direction on the box, this will help with pain & inflamation.
