What Causes Tender Foot Below The Ankle Which Is Swollen And Painful?
I have a very tender foot, it is on the inside below the ankle....it is swollen and very painful. I can walk but when I have been inactive for a while I can barely walk. I thought maybe it was gout, but from what I have read about gout, this is more likely to be in the big toe.

You need need to do the following
1- do you have fever with it???
2- have you done your full blood count to see if infection is there??
3- is there any traaumatic history?
4- suffering from.any systemic disease???
If you haven't done any, kindly
Do full blood count, x-ray and ultrasound of the swelling.
Since your question is so ambiguous, I can't really make anything of it, once you provide answers to the above mentioned questions, I'll probably in a good position to answer you.
