A member asked:
I experience painful ankles after laying down or sitting for a long time. the pain reduces after walking couple of steps. what might be the cause?

Puzzling: This is puzzling as inflammatory conditions like arthritis or tendinitis as well as sprains or bone disease hurt more with walking and weight bearing. I would be interested in hearing what a rheumatologist would think of this symptom. I regret that I can be of no help.
