A member asked:

Ankle pain for 2 weeks. sometimes, feeling popping followed by terrible pain but later it returns. no injures. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cartilage damage: Sounds like you might have damaged the cartilage somehow, or developed some scar tissue in the joint called synovitis. Rest as much as possible and elevated when you can for a few weeks. If the pain doesn't subside, see your local podiatrist.
