I also cant rotate my ankle or that spot hurts but if it is straight my ankle is fine help?
Answers:
Judging from where you describe, sounds like the tendons (called the peroneal tendons) are inflammed and whenever you use them they hurt but only in a certain position. I'd recommend getting evaluated by your nearest podiatrist. Until then, ice it and take Advil/Aleve for the pain. You may need to be in a walking boot for a short time and get fitted for custom arch supports (orthotics) to help support your feet in the long run so that tendon doesn't get irritated. Hope this helps!
