Differential Diagnosis

Diffuse

Ankle pain persistent following injury

  • Fractures - anterior process calcaneus, lateral process talus, posterior process talus (or, rare, os trigonum fracture), osteochondral lesion, tibial plafond chondral lesion, base of fifth metatarsal
  • Bony impingements - anterior, posterior, anterolateral
  • Atypical sprains - chronic ligamentous instability, medial ligament sprain, syndesmosis sprain (AITFL sprain), subtalar joint sprain
  • Tendon injuries - chronic peroneal tendon weakness, peroneal tendon subluxation/rupture, tibialis posterior tendon subluxation/rupture
  • Other - inadequate rehabilitation, chronic synovitis, sinus tarsi syndrome
