Re: ankle injury

From what information you have written, I am inclined to think you have a nerve entrapment. (There are 5 main nerves and many branches in the foot) The one associated with the top of the foot where you describe is the Superficial Peroneal nerve. I recommend you have a doctor do a diagnostic injection with a local anesthetic and if that works, follow up with a steroid injection.

Good luck.

The proprietary gel also provides extra protective padding to help comfort the pain caused by metatarsal soreness. May be used for relieving the burning sensation under the metatarsal heads, calluses and tarsal fat pads.
