Tell ur friend to: Just walk and not run (bad joke!). Her pain could be from ankle strain, sprain, fracture or arthritis.She needs to see her dr for a thorough exam and possible xray to confirm and have an accurate diagnosis. God bless u both! http://www.Medicinenet.Com/script/main/mobileart.Asp?Articlekey=273.
