A member asked:
I am having pain at the end of my left fibula at the top of my ankle. this has been going on for approx 9 months. what could cause this? i can still walk but on a painful leg?

I assume there has been no obvious history of trauma or severe ankle sprain.It's time to get an accurate diagnosis. It could be a stress fracture, other bone pathology or.ligament damage. Consult your MD or an orthopedic surgeon for evaluation. An X-Ray will most likely be recommended.
