Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms could be suggestive of a ligament inflammation or rupture. I recommend performing an ankle MRI in order to examine the soft tissues around the joint. Consulting with an orthopedist will be needed.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
