Without seeing the x-ray (although they don't show up well on x-ray), or examining your foot in person, it is really impossible to say.
A stress fracture though is a very common injury to the lower extremity. It is basically just a little sliver or crack in the bone. Resting the foot is the best treatment. It can take 6 weeks or longer (depending on your age) to heal this kind of fracture completely.
