Instability Of The Affected Area
The human anatomy is structured for balance and movement. When these structures making up the joints weaken, instability of the affected area may occur. Strong ligaments hold the bones of your joints in place while the joints are in motion and at rest. Muscles and tendons hold the bones of the joints in place most often when moving.
Conditions
Arthritis of the Foot and Ankle
The pain and stiffness you feel in your feet and ankles as you age could be arthritis. If left untreated, this nagging pain can get worse over time, eventually making it difficult to walk even short distances.
Peroneal Tendon Injury
A peroneal tendon injury most commonly occurs in individuals who participate in sports that involve repetitive ankle motion.
