Similar to elbow: The ankle has a nerve, similar to the ulnar nerve of the elbow. The nerve is sometimes irritated with injury, or tarsal tunnel syndrome/ entrapment. Have you recently injured your ankle or lower leg?

You also have....: A large nerve that runs through this area as well. It's being irritated, compressed or injured to give you these symptoms. See a podiatrist to find out just why and how to treat it.
