I can't figure out what this pain in my ankle is. who should i consult?

Specialist: When seeing your doctor, describe your symptoms and they may refer you to a rheumatology, orthopedist or podiatrist depending the symptoms. Depending on your insurance plan, you may not get your choice of doctor, but try to get a specialist that focuses on ankle pain. I hope this helps, good luck!
