Ankle Pain

Overview

Ankle pain may develop from injury, overuse, arthritis, tendon problems, instability or other conditions affecting the bones and soft tissues around the ankle. Persistent pain, swelling or difficulty bearing weight should be evaluated so the underlying cause can be identified and treated.

When to See a Podiatrist

If you're experiencing persistent pain, swelling, changes in skin or nail appearance, difficulty walking or bearing weight, or a condition that isn't improving with basic home care, it's a good idea to schedule an evaluation. Early assessment often leads to simpler, more conservative treatment options.
