Hi,

I am in my twenties and had some pain in my shins, which I now know is medial tibial stress syndrome. However, at the time I continued to run despite the pain and I started to develop a slight ache in my right ankle after running. One day after training I was limping as it was now painful. The pain was around my lateral malleolus and I was unable to fully weight bear on that leg. I also had anache across my foot and up my calf muscle.

This was 9 weeks ago now. I was told that I have an ankle impingement by a podiatrist, but after looking up this condition I do not beleive this is the case. I have been completely resting my ankle since and still I have a constant ache around my ankle and up my calf muscle both days. I am unsure of what brings it on because it doesn't seem to correlate with resting, walking or standing.

It is driving me crazy now as I do triathlon and I am unable to cycle or run and it is does not seem to be improving at all.

I would be so greatful if anyone has any idea what this could be,

Many thanks.
