“Glass in foot pain?”
In May 2020, I had a deep cut with glass, I am now fully better as my foot has healed up. However, when I walk on a bumpy or really hard surfers my foot feels little pain also when I wake up in the morning that area of my foot feels really stiff. It doesn't allow me to put my food down but during the day after half an hour, it becomes better?

Sounds like your pain is not related to the glass. You need to be checked for Plantar Fasciitis.

Your symptoms seem to be most consistent with another condition that is not related to your previous injury. It will be important to figure out if there was damage to any important structures in your foot from your previous injury however. A Podiatric Surgeon can help you get better quickly.
You need to go to a podiatrist or other foot specialist in order to have your foot evaluated. X-rays and an ultrasound may be necessary to find out if you have scar tissue or nerve damage that is affecting the motion of your foot.

Could be the site of the injury cause callus which will be in the form of hard skin pressuring the nerve
Cuts to the bottom of the foot can take a long time to completely heal, especially if they are in a weightbearing area. However, your question doesn’t indicate whether or not you have seen a physician, and it is possible that you could have a piece of glass left in your foot, even though the wound has healed. I would recommend that you see either an orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeon or a podiatrist if you have not already.
You need a hands-on, face-to-face examination of your foot. After a full medical history of the injury, physical examination, and any necessary diagnostic tests, it can be determined what is going on depending on the anatomy in the area and how it reacts to the specific testings.
Morning,
The problem may be due to scar tissue from the puncture wound. Make sure to wear well-cushioned shoe gear at all times, even at home. Seek out a foot doctor if this does not help.

This needs to be evaluated by a podiatrist. There may be residual shards or this may be from scar tissue.
