Consider seeing a specialist. Not sure any help you get here will be science-based.
 
Absolutely see a general doctor for a bone density measurement, and then a podiatrist for possible alternatives/treatments.
 
It's really hard to say without knowing anything about you. The weight of your pack could play a role. It could be your shoes or insoles. It could be your stride. It could be over training or under training. Probably best to start with your doctor.
