What Could Constant Ankle Pain In Children Suggest?

I have a nine year old daughter who constantly complains of her ankles hurting and needing to pop them She gets on her tip toes and pops them and this relieves some of the pain. It hurts when she pops them. This is causing problems with daily activities. She also has a sister that is older but when she was 11 had the exact same things.
