I have no idea what’s going on with it. When I walk a fair distance I’m fine. When I’m standing, sitting, laying down - no pain at all. No swelling or heat. No injury, I’m pretty sedentary so no sports have done it.
I can’t even properly identify the pain. When I strike off into a walk from a standing or sitting position I limp for quite a while. I can’t flex through the ankle properly to stride properly until I get going. The pain seems to be on the inside and outside of the ankle but I also feel tightness in the front and back. It’s easier to walk on tiptoes than it is to put my weight on my flat foot.
I just don’t know what to do. I’m worried it’s going to start impacting my knee and hip joint. Do I need a doctor or a physio?
