Ankle sprainer: It sounds like you are describing either repeat ankle sprains or a high arched foot....Both will make you walk on outside of foot and roll over. I would have a thorough biomechanical exam performed by a foot/ankle specialist and consider orthotics, physical therapy, bracing and shoe changes. Happy feet. -h-.

Gait evaluation : You should have a gait evaluation by a foot and ankle specialist. Some amount of wear on the outsides of the shoes is normal in everyone, but ankle pain is not.
