you really should see a Podiatrist as soon as possible. You need to get an examination and make sure there's not something further wrong with your foot. For now apply ice pack for ten minutes at a time several times a day. And of course keep your foot elevated. Tomorrow make an appointment with the doctor.

To get around, try a heel lift, rather than crutches. Those worked for me instead of crutches for calf injuries.
Seeing a doctor is a good idea if the response to ice and elevation does not help.

RICE
R.est
I.ce it for 15 minutes three times daily
C.ompress with ace wrap
E.levate in recliner or with foot on a pillow
You can eat & take some Motrin or Aspirin, too.
And, go barefoot as much as possible to avoid unnecessary pressure on the foot while it's tender.
