Tendon or nerve.: I can only assume that you have sprained the outside of you ankle. This is the side that the little toe is located on. If severe enough, it is possible to strain not only ligaments but also tendons (peronei) and nerves. This could account for the shooting pain up your led and into the middle of the foot. You need to see a foot and ankle specialist if this does not improve.
