Anterior ankle pain

[sarahkelly]

Do you stretch out before and after you jog, what do you feel that a chiro (presume you mean chiropractor) will do to help? Any prior history of damage to the ankle/area?

I never stretch before running, but always after. I start running very slowly and build speed as i go. I feel that a chiro may be able to loosen my ankle and maybe make it stop clicking by popping it back into place (if that is what is wrong with it, I am not sure if something is simply out of place or if there is any soft tissue damage). I am not sure what clicking/grinding in a joint means. I have never had any ankle problems before, and have never sprained my ankle. I roll over on it almost daily on my runs (I run trails) but think nothing of it, because it always springs right back and doesnt hurt. I'd say I have good ankle stability. The pain is at the front of the ankle joint, I'd say between the talus and tibia.

I'm guessing if you roll over on it daily, it's probably not as stable as you think it is and could do with a bit of strengthening alright!
I would show it to a physio if I was you
