Tell your Drill Sergeant that you need to go to Sick Call.

This all depends on your MOS and since you are now at AIT, I take it you are not in a combat MOS? The Army is notorious for discharging people for medical reasons, so be careful. Drill sergeants never want you to go to sick call and when you do they give you a hard time. Tell the Drills about your problem and that you need some ice and ibuprofen for your feet. They will appreciate that you are trying other solutions than sick call. Take some ibuprofen after you run and throughout the day; that will cut down on the swelling. You probably need a couple of days off to treat your foot, but then again I dont know how strict your drills are. Just don't quit! If its that bad, go to sick call. After a run tell the Drill you need to go the next morning. Dont be intimidated, look them straight in the eye and speak clearly and confidently. They can't say no, believe me!!!

Go on sick call.
DFon't let anybody BS you that they hassle ou for wanting to go, the sgts will hassle you, this is not the case.
Sick call us usually every morning, they give you a slip, you go to the dispensary and you receive the apperopriate care.
By the way, foot problems are more common than a cold in the Army.Go to sick call and get it taken care of.

tell your drill sergeant about it and they will let you get it checked out at a place called SICK CALL, when you speak to the doctor tell him how bad it hurts you

Tell the Drill Sargent, have them send you to the hospital to have this looked at, or go a hospital on your own and them look at this.

Have you gone to sick call? If you foot is really bothering you talk to your drill Sergeant he/she can't deny you sick call.
