ankle pain
Ankle pain can stem from various causes, ranging from acute injuries to chronic conditions.
Some potential causes of ankle pain include:
Ankle Sprains
Ankle sprains occur when the ligaments supporting the ankle stretch or tear, often due to sudden twisting or rolling of the foot.
Ankle fractures
Ankle fractures can result from trauma, falls, or excessive force. Such injuries typically cause severe pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty weight-bearing.
Peroneal tendon pathology
Peroneal tendon issues (like tendonitis, acute tears, tendinopathy and subluxation) involve inflammation of the tendons on the outside of the ankle joint. Overuse, repetitive activities, or trauma can cause such pathology leading to pain, stiffness, and swelling.
Arthritis
Various forms of arthritis, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout, can affect the ankle joint, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling. Arthritis typically develops over time and may worsen with age or exacerbating factors.
If you're experiencing persistent or severe ankle pain, it's crucial to seek professional help for proper diagnosis and treatment.
