A member asked:

My foot and ankle is extremly sore i can walk on in and move it a little but what can i do to help it?

Sprain: First, has this pain been caused by an injury? Activities? What does the ankle look like? Depending on these answers then we can move forward.

Ice, see podiatrist: Did you have an injury? Or is this out of the blue? I would recommend seeing a podiatrist for a thorough history, physical examination, and possible an x-ray. In the meantime: rest, ice, elevation.
