When i walk the moment weight is transferred from heal to toe , I experience pain around the ankle in front and left side side area of my right foot . X-ray study is normal. This has been like this for past 15 days. What can it be? When I take diclofinac sodium pill,pain is relieved almost completely but comes back once medicine effect is over.

Hi,
If the Xray is normal, the trouble seems to be due to sprains/.
The possibility of ligament tear needs to be excluded. Please get yourself checked by an orthopedic doctor.
Anti inflammatory pain relievents along with joint support (Elastic Bandage)/rest ,supportive local applications, bone tonics like calcium,vitamine D
are usually prescribed.
Thanks.
