Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have started experiencing intermittent pain in my left ankle. I will be walking and all of a sudden a sharp pain will shoot through my ankle and I can t put any weight on it or move it without the pain getting worse. It may last for a few seconds or up to several minutes before it goes away and I can walk again. I am looking for some possible causes and trying to decide if I need to see a doctor. YYYY@YYYY
