Causes

There is no single cause for ankle pain, yet it is important that the cause is accurately diagnosed by your podiatrist in order to develop appropriate treatment. The injury may stem from damage to the bone, muscle, tendon or ligament and a variety of tests can enable the source of pain to be located.

When the muscles surrounding the ankle are weak, your ligaments are not protected, will stretch and could result in a sprain or ligament rupture. Another type of ankle injury is a fracture or break. The recovery from a break or fracture can be effectively treated by a podiatrist.
