pain, bruising on top of foot

When I walk long distances in certain shoes, the next day, the top of my right foot has purple splotches and I am in a lot of pain–it feels like a sprain at the top of my foot.
I have had it x-rayed in the past, and nothing is broken.
Is this a sprain?
How should I treat it and avoid it in the future?

    If this only happens when you walk in a certain shoe. Look at the insdie of the shoe. Is there something that cuts into your foot? Are the laces too tight?If this happens only when you walk a certain distance, then the shoes still might be the problem.
