Ankle pain: Many things can cause ankle pain. A common causes of pain in the ankle in my practice is ankle sprains that patient incur while simply walking. I would recommend evaluation by a podiatrist or foot/ankle orthopedic surgeon.

Yes...: Ankle pain could result from different reasons, of which may include: trauma (fracture, tendon or ligamentous tear, arthritis), infection, metabolic conditions (gout) musculoskeletal or biomechanical abnormality, or neurologic conditions (neuropathy). A thorough history and physical exam and possibly laboratory and radiology exams could determine the cause. If symptoms persist get it evaluated.
