weird pain on top of foot from basketball

I had a game yesterday and I don't remember too well, but I THINK it was when I just ran fast and stopped suddenly, kinda like hitting the brakes, I felt something weird on the middle of the top of my right foot.  I woke up today, its not unbearable, but there is pain there when I put pressure. I can walk fine tho. Anyone know what it might be? 

The pain is middle of the top of my foot. Never had any foot issues before

Might have just stepped weird and strained a muscle. If the foot is fully functional without severe pain then I would doubt you tore anything. Maybe a sprain/strain. Ice/Heat that mother and stretch it out every couple hours. See how it feels later.

Get a paper cup, fill it with water, freeze it and cut out the bottom so it looks like the end of a pencil w/ an eraser on the end then massage it with that. Usually works well for isolating a spot so you don't have to ice the whole foot.

Is there a large amount of swelling or any bruising?

Nope, foot looks perfectly fine.  Just hurts when pressure is applied.

I said it looks completely fine, pain was still the same, so I tried giving it a thorough massage today.  It ended up swelling up lol....

Has the swelling gone away? And how's the pain now?

Swelling went down and pain went down.  Hopefully it's 100% by Sunday for my game
