Common Causes of Ankle Pain
Ankle pain can significantly hinder daily life. Understanding the common causes is essential for finding relief.
- Ankle Sprain: One of the most prevalent causes of ankle pain is a sprain, which occurs when the ligaments that support and help to stabilize the ankle are stretched or torn. This injury often results from a sudden twist or impact and can cause swelling, bruising, limited mobility, and difficulty walking.
- Achilles Tendinitis: Another frequent source of ankle pain is Achilles tendinitis, the inflammation of the Achilles tendon at the back of the ankle. This condition is typically brought on by overuse or repetitive stress, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced flexibility.
- Fractures: Fractures and stress fractures can also cause ankle pain due to direct trauma or repetitive impact on the joint. These injuries can create significant discomfort, swelling, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected ankle.
- Arthritis: Different types of arthritis, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout, can also contribute to ankle pain. These conditions lead to the degeneration of joint cartilage, resulting in inflammation, stiffness, and discomfort during movement.
- Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD): This condition is another common cause of ankle pain that involves damage to the tendon that supports the foot’s arch. This condition can lead to pain, swelling, and a flattening of the foot arch, affecting your gait and overall stability.
By addressing these common causes of ankle pain with a holistic approach, Zenith Physiotherapy and Wellness can help restore your body’s balance, strength, and flexibility. Call today to request an appointment with one of our specialists!
