OOh, that hurts! I know I get that too and cannot wear flats. I have flat feet though and you probably do too. Like others have said, try putting a small arch in the shoe or wearing shoes with a small heel. There are some cute ones out there at Payless and stuff. I dont know how people can wear those ballet flats! Its like just wearing a paper towel on your foot! But they are cute, and more power to ya if you can wear em and not hurt!!!!!!

because if you wear heels for long periods you shorten the muscles in the calf area. and when you change to flat shoes then you lengthen those muscles,so if you have worn heels for a long time thats why it hurts its the muscles saying help!!
