I have pain on the inside of my ankle and on the back of my ankle ? when i am resting it hurts to put it down . anything i can do ?

Ankle pain: The pain you describe is in the area of your ankle along the medial malleolus. Two tendons , tibialis posterior and flexor digitorum longus, run through that groove and can get irritated. I would start with ace wrap and NSAID. Seek further evaluation if not improving.
