pain on the top of the foot

Hi,
I went on a long run about 5 days ago and right after the run I felt pain on the top of my foot.
It hurts the most when I just lift my toes or curl them under really tight.
Yesterday I noticed that when I bend that foot I can feel a “creaking” over the top of it.
I’ve been icing and taking ibuprofen.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

    I have the same problem and have had it on and off for 3 years I have been to a foot specialist who said it was a stress fracture although it did not realy show up on the xray, I wore a permanent cast for 6 weeks and it seemed ok but 2 months later it was hurting again. I wore a removable cast for 6 weeks and then got the same pain in the other foot I have had this cast on and off on alternate feet now for 3 years, it has been ok for about the last 2 months and I have been wearing training shoes in the house as my foot cracks when I walk in bare feet, but 2 days ago it showed up again worse than ever, if you find out anything let me know I am going to see if I can see another foot guy possibly today
