Are you having difficulty going up and down the stairs, walking around the office, or even jogging in the park because of your ankle pain? That throbbing pain can come from various sources, but a physical therapist can help bring back the health of your ankle in no time.

Your ankles are formed by mechanical structures that must coordinate properly so that it can work at their maximum capacity. As a matter of fact, our ankle joint consists of several bones that work with one another efficiently, as well as with the various muscle tissues that get the structure of the joints together.

A damaged ankle ligament and joint can occur from just walking down the street or when doing strenuous physical activities. The pain can range from acute to chronic. A serious condition in the ankle ligament can cause your joint to dislocate. It may sound like a pop and can be as painful as a sprain in your ankle. It requires immediate medical attention to determine the severity of the pain.
