Re: ankle pain and stiffness

It's so funny that you said that about your husband pulling your foot. I have the same problem, except my friend was pulling on my foot on a trip to San Francisco one time - I was on the bed, and he was at the window seat - and he almost went right out the window!!! It never did pop that day either. Haha!

I used to get it much worse when I worked at a salon, 9 hours on my feet on tile floors. I used an air cast for a while, but nothing ever eliminated it completely.

The best I can do for mine is try not to stand in one place too long, even if it means walking in circles or in place while I wait on line. (I do get some funny looks sometimes though.)

Always keep something on those feet - even if it's just foam insoles in your slippers at home. Barefeet are the worst!!!

and...if you have orthotics, wear them as often as possible!!!
