Causes of ankle pain

Ankle discomfort can be caused by a number of factors. An ankle injury can be brutally painful, making weight-bearing impossible. Even little discomfort can make it difficult to go about your regular routine.

Ankle pain can occur suddenly as a result of an injury or gradually as a result of a chronic underlying issue. If your ankle is hurting, here are some possible reasons why:

Chronic Lateral Ankle Pain

If you have pain on the outside of your ankle, it could be the result of a previous injury that did not heal properly. The more unstable your ankle joints are, the more painful they become.

Arthritis

Arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease that causes pain in the joints. The most common types are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Both types of arthritis can have serious consequences for the ankle joints and can affect people of all ages.

Bursitis

Bursitis develops when tendons rub against the “bursae,” or anti-friction sacs, resulting in flat feet. While having flat feet is usually painless, if your feet are not in line with your knees, it can cause your ankles to hurt or swell.

Fortunately, our Fort Worth and Keller, TX physical therapy clinic has helped rehabilitate many ankle injuries. Let us help you too!

Strained Ankle

Sprains and strains are both common ankle injuries, and they’re often mistaken for one another! A ligament is strained or torn in a sprain, but a muscle or tendon is overstretched in a strain. Both of these ankle injuries should be checked by a doctor to verify that there is no long-term damage.

Achilles tendinitis

A sudden strain on the Achilles tendon can result in tiny tears and inflammation at the back of your ankle. Your Achilles tendon must heal with rest; otherwise, scar tissue may form, which only surgery can remedy.

Lupus

Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect any part of your body, including your ankles.

Fractured Ankle

Ankle pain will occur if you break one of the three bones in your ankle (tibia, fibula, or talus). Ankle fractures may require weeks of rest to ensure proper healing.
