Causes of Ankle Pain

Ankle pain can stem from numerous factors, ranging from acute injuries to chronic conditions, making even minor discomfort disruptive to your daily routines. Here are potential causes of ankle pain: 

  1. Chronic Lateral Ankle Pain: Persistent pain on the outer side of the ankle may result from an improperly healed past injury, leading to increased instability.
  2. Arthritis: Both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, chronic inflammatory conditions, can affect ankle joints, regardless of age.
  3. Bursitis: When tendons rub against bursae (anti-friction sacs), it can cause discomfort or swelling in the ankles, especially if flat feet are misaligned with the knees.
  4. Strained Ankle: Ankle sprains and strains are common injuries often confused with each other. Sprains involve ligament damage, while strains involve muscle or tendon overstretching, both requiring evaluation by a medical professional.
  5. Achilles Tendinitis: Sudden stress on the Achilles tendon can lead to small tears and inflammation at the back of the ankle, necessitating rest for proper healing.
  6. Lupus: This autoimmune disease can affect various body parts, including the ankles.
  7. Fractured Ankle: Pain in the ankle may indicate a fracture in one of the ankle bones (tibia, fibula, or talus), potentially requiring weeks of rest for proper healing.
