Our specialty-trained ankle doctors at Carolina Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center are recognized experts in the diagnosis and treatment of ankle injuries and conditions.
Ankle pain is most commonly associated with trauma and sports-related injuries, such as a fracture, or an injury to the ligaments of the ankle, such as a sprain. However, agitation and discomfort may also occur due to overuse injuries, which can range from mild joint pain to Achilles tendonitis (medically referred to as tendinitis).
If you think you may be suffering from an ankle injury or condition and are experiencing any of the symptoms listed below, it may be time to visit a foot and ankle specialist.
You should also seek treatment with an ankle specialist if you begin to feel feverish or if the area reddens, becomes warmer, and feels even more sensitive, as these are signs of an infection. Due to the constant stress and frequency of use, ankle pain generally does not subside without treatment.
