I've tried icing it and arnica cream. I'm going to rest it again today and if it's not better, will have to go see the doc. I may have to learn to use the left foot (notice I'm not giving up sewing.) Driving a car is a different story.
where on the top of your foot is the pain? nearer the ankle? might be a little tendonitis, R-I-C-E ( rest, ice,confine( constrict?) exercise) should work, then some strenghtening exercises. And put your rubber gloves under your pedal to help keep it in one place on hard surfaces.
