How to do exercises for Anterior Ankle Impingement

Anterior ankle impingement is a common cause of pain at the top of your foot and in front of your ankle. It is commonly associated with limited ankle dorsiflexion and can cause irritation of your ankle dorsiflexor tendons. As a result, it's not too uncommon to feel some discomfort or pain in high demand activities like running or squatting.

[@oliviade5048]

The exercise at 3:40 is new to me. Will definitely try this!

[@RehabHero]

Let me know how it goes!

[@fredhartman1325]

Great information, but music is a distraction. Thanks for your help.

[@ednaesquivel7536]

Music is very distracting, hard to block it to listen to the information.😢

One of my ankles sometimes pinches on the front of my ankle on the outside, but only when I do a deep squat with turned out feet for dance. Could this help with that?

[@RehabHero]

It can help depending on the exact location of the ankle pinching, to be honest though it's hard to visualize exactly which spot you're referring to as the ankle has many bones and joints in and around it. There's another condition that it could be related to called 'chronic ankle sprains', this condition would benefit from a different series of exercises focused on ankle stability and strength. You would need to get your ankle assessed by a physiotherapist / physical therapist or sports chiropractor to know exactly which condition you're dealing with.

Could it happen to both ankles at the same time after dealing with tight calves and really bad ankles ?

[@RehabHero]

Yes this can happen to both at the same time

[@mmfrancoli]

@@RehabHero can I contact you ? Please tell me how.

[@Jeff-ug5ll]

This is for strengthening not mobility right ?

[@RehabHero]

This is for joint mobility, not strengthening

[@dassilbelloul]

Mine doesn't hurt when I run or jump but it kills me when I do dorsiflexion, would these help

[@RehabHero]

glad it does! it takes a few weeks to months for the gains to be permanent but if you're consistent you'll eventually get there :)

[@dassilbelloul]

@@RehabHero and one more thing should I keep doing the calf raises and balance exercises, thank you in advance, have a great day

[@omzxa8415]

⁠after five months does you feel better or still in pain

[@dassilbelloul]

@@omzxa8415 yes it still hurts, even after doing therapy

[@TimeOutNow45]

​@dassilbelloul how's it going with your ankle

[@wh1s948]

Dude is lifting his heel but telling us to not lift the heel. What is loser. Just wasting our time.

[@RehabHero]

Sorry the video should've clarified, the amount of heel lift you see in this video is acceptable, I was referring to a heel lift that has the entire hind and mid foot losing contact with the surface it's on.
