Problem Ankle Pain?

Cheshire Foot Clinic – Taking Ankle Pain Seriously

Many of us have sprained an ankle at some point or other, which frequently leads to problems. Ankle injuries can limit activity at the time of injury. They frequently recur and cause problems later, especially if not fully rehabilitated. As we age, our joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments can develop wear and tear, leading to pain and inability to do the things we enjoy.

Ankle Pain – Causes and Symptoms

The foot and ankle are intricate structures containing numerous bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons that all work together to support your movement and balance. Pain in these areas can stem from many different medical conditions that ultimately lead to pain in the ankle or foot discomfort.

Getting an accurate diagnosis and the proper treatment from a foot and ankle specialist is the best way to prevent any long-term issues from forming. Below is an overview of some of the most common causes and symptoms associated with ankle and foot pain:

Achilles Tendinitis

Overuse or strain of the Achilles tendon can create pain and stiffness along the back of the ankle.

Ankle Sprain

Ligament injuries caused by twisting can lead to swelling, bruising, and pain surrounding the affected joint.

Tendonitis

Overuse of tendons of the foot can cause tenderness, swelling, and unignorable pain during walking or movement.

Os Trigonum

Experiencing pain while moving could be a reaction to a pinched or inflamed os trigonum – a small, extra bone located behind the ankle joint.

Plantar Fasciitis

It’s not uncommon for an inflamed plantar fascia ligament, which stretches from the front of the foot to the heel, to provoke pain in the ankle not just the arch or heel.

Posterior Tibial Tendonitis

A strained or torn posterior tibial tendon can result in pain along the inner side of the ankle this can be degenerative and requires timely treatment.

Sinus Tarsi Syndrome

Deep, unmistakable pain near the outer side of the ankle may likely be the result of instability or inflammation in the sinus tarsi.

Stress Fractures

Microscopic cracks in foot bones may lead to dull pain and swelling, especially after repetitive activities like running.

Tarsal Coalition

Abnormal bone connection in the foot causes stiffness and achy pain, most commonly experienced during activities that require motion.

Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome

Compressed nerves in the tarsal tunnel may create a sense of numbness, tingling, or pain near the ankle or foot arch.

Tibialis Anterior Tendonitis

Repeated stress on the shin can induce swelling and pain along the front of the ankle and foot.
