NEED FOR CUSHION!: Most shoes aren't always what is bad, usually it's the crummy insoles they come with! there are many possible reasons that you may have pain in the foot, but try cushioning arch supports like spenco polysorb cross-trainers(http://www.Spenco.Com/products/footcare/poly-sorb). If these don't help, see a podiatrist.

It could be.: Knee arthritis causes knee swelling ( more subtle than ankle swelling ) and impedes the lymph flow from the lower legs resulting in ankle swelling.It could happen.
