A member asked:
What should i do about pain in lower leg/ankle area after walking and what could it be from?

See below: Most likely from improper support. Get a pair of orthotics to put into your shoes to support the foot and ankle. For the pain try using ice, stretching and ibuprofen.

Try support: You may just need an orthotic for more support and alignment of your foot and leg.
