Why does my ankle hurt?
A variety of factors can contribute to ankle pain. An ankle injury can be excruciatingly painful, preventing you from bearing weight. Even minor discomfort can make it difficult to go about your daily activities.
Ankle pain can strike suddenly as a result of an injury or gradually as a result of a chronic underlying condition. Here are some possible causes of ankle pain:
Strains and sprains
Ankle ligament sprains are common and occur when you roll over your ankle while playing sport, tripping or walking on uneven ground. Once you have sprained your ankle once, it is very likely to sprain it again if you have not spent the time and effort on rehabilitating it. The ligament can become scarred and painful, while the muscles around lose their coordination and stabilizing effect. It is important to release the scar tissue while building up ankle stability to prevent recurrences of ankle sprains.
Fractured Ankle
Ankle pain will occur if one of the three bones in your ankle is broken (tibia, fibula, or talus). Ankle fractures may necessitate surgical fixation and weeks of rest and rehabilitation. Ankle stiffness, shortness, and tightness of the calf muscles and Achilles tendons are complications that are addressed during physiotherapy.
Bursitis
Bursitis occurs when tendons rub against the anti-friction sacs known as “bursae,” caused by unstable ankles and fallen foot arches. While having flat feet is usually painless, feet that are out of alignment with your knees can cause the soft tissues around the ankle to hurt or swell up.
Fortunately, our Vancouver physiotherapy center has experience with treating ankle injuries and improving leg alignment. Allow us to assist you.
Achilles tendinitis
An unexpected strain on the Achilles tendon can cause microtears and inflammation at the back of your ankle. At times, it can rupture partially or completely, necessitating surgical repair. Rest, deep tissue massage and graduated strengthening is necessary for your Achilles tendon to heal, otherwise, scar tissue will form, slowing down recovery.
