Is Your Ankle Holding You Back?

If you’re dealing with persistent ankle aches, swelling, or stiffness that stop you from walking comfortably or enjoying daily activities, you’re not alone. Ankle pain can stem from an injury, overuse, or more complex joint and tendon issues—and it’s often treatable.

What’s Going On

Your ankle is a complex joint that supports your body in motion, so small issues can make a big impact. Some of the common causes we see include:

Ligaments or tendons get stretched or torn during a twist, roll, or sudden movement

A more serious injury to bone may present with sharp pain, swelling and difficulty bearing weight.

Overuse, repetitive motion, or age-related wear can cause inflamed tendons around the ankle.

Everyday wear, poor biomechanics or inflammation can lead to chronic ankle pain.

Sometimes the cause isn’t just in the ankle—nerve issues, circulation problems or biomechanical faults can play a part.

How We Help at Our Clinic

We aim to get you back on your feet with a comprehensive approach—not just masking the pain. Here’s what you can expect:

We’ll review your history (injury, onset, triggers), examine the ankle, check muscle and tendon function, and consider imaging or referrals if needed.

This may include joint mobilisation, soft-tissue work, guidance on footwear and movement, and taping or bracing where appropriate.

We’ll give you stretches and exercises designed to restore normal movement, reduce pressure on the joint/tendons, and build supporting muscles.

Tips on activity modification, correct footwear, walking/running form, and how to avoid recurrence make a big difference.

If you’ve had pain for a while, or tried “resting it” without success, we’ll explore whether there’s a deeper issue and adapt the plan accordingly.

Why It’s Important to Act

Putting up with ankle pain isn’t just inconvenient it may lead to:

 

  • Greater risk of re-injury or instability

  • Compensatory problems (hips, knees, back) because you’re off-balance

  • A reduction in activity that affects your fitness, mood and quality of life

Treating early gives you a better chance of returning to full function and avoiding chronic problems.
