You probably had some early stage of frostbite. You need to see a doctor to make sure, but if it was only as bad as I what I did to my thumb (earliest stage of frostbite there is, which sets in earlier in digits than in your limbs) then your feet sould be okay in about 24 hours.

See a doctor, though. Make sure.

But in this case, pain is a good thing. It means you don't have any nerve damage and the tissue isn't dead.
