What Causes Soreness In The Ankles?

I have really sore ankles and don t really notice them until I get in bed at night. I mix up my shoes. I do get a lot of steps and I m up-and-down all day from the desk to the sales floor. I m sure it s some kind of overuse but it s interfering with my sleep

If your job requires you to be on your feet for prolonged periods, then please use soft, pressure distributing inserts in your foot wear with a 5 millimeter medial arch support. Materials like poron, silicon, plasatazote, E.V.A all re good in this regard. As much as possible give rest to your feet by sitting and offloading your feet whenever possible.
