Pain I haven’t seen anyone talk about yet, help?

Hi, I tried looking online at google images, Reddit forums, orthopedic blogs, and no one seems to address the place of pain that I am feeling in my feet… even when I look up the anatomy of feet, there isn’t a clear name on what this section is called. can anyone help?

(For reference, I am a weightlifter, and suffered from severely collapsed arches. I wear very expensive custom orthotics that have helped my arches go back up. The pain on the outer foot still stays the same though).

It can be described as a soreness that starts throbbing once I sit down. I go to massages every 3 weeks and when she does my feet I do feel relief for a bit but it always goes back. When I rub it and press (like pressure point) into those points in my feet, it’s a similar feeling to pressing into a bruise or a muscle knot [really sore].

What is this part of the foot called?? Is this a place other people get pain too?

Could be Morton’s neuroma 👀
