ankle pain ankle injuryThe ankle is a complex structure comprised of numerous bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments that help support your body weight and allow you to move and flex your foot. When the various parts of the ankle function as they should, they make standing, walking, running, jumping, and raising and pointing your toes possible.

However, when an injury or disease affects any of the ankle's components, pain can result and, if it persists, it can make even the most basic activities uncomfortable or unbearable.

Are you suffering from ankle pain or instability, and worried you'll have to change jobs or give up your active lifestyle? Don't let ankle issues rob you of the ability to participate in the activities you enjoy. Help is available.
