Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. Thanks for asking. I understand your concern. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms can be due to pinching of nerve at ankle due to tarsal tunnel syndrome.
Consult an orthopedic surgeon for specific advise (treatment usually consists of rest, ice pack application, anti inflammatory drugs, stretching exercises & physiotherapy).
Thanks.
