Hi
if you have-not injured your heel at the time of pain initiation , then according to your age group plantar fasciopathy is responsible for these symptoms of yours.
Avoid walking bare foot, try soft soled footwear or put silicon heel pads under your heel inserted in your most commonly worn footwear.
Hot packs helps in relieving stiffness, can try.
But, Consult sports medicine specialist or orthopedist or good physiotherapist for evaluation and further management.
Next Steps
In electrotherapy ask for SHOCK WAVE THERAPY (ESWT) ,if applicable in your case.

Hello sir, it can be due to strain of foot fascia.
Immediately after waking up give slight massage to your sole with fingers which break adhesions formed.
Later keep your both foot in a lukewarm water tub, which increases circulation and release the fascia.
Later slight stretches of the foot like standing on the toes which stretch the sole muscle.
Do the above before sleep as well.
Next Steps
if the pain still persists the get your foot X-ray consult a physiotherapist in person.
Health Tips
avoid long time standings
walking and keeping weight.
rest your foot.
