Horrible Ankle Pain
Ten years ago I had a piece of dead cartilage removed from my right ankle, after having the cartilage removed my orthopedic surgeon told my Mother and I that I would develop arthritis in my ankle during young adulthood. Recently, I have been experiencing extreme pain from my ankle. It catches, clicks, pops, swells and is impossible to walk on. The only things that seem to help me are my Mom's arthritis rub and not moving my foot at all.
