Back in March I fell and sprained my ankle, or so I thought. I did not go to the doctor, but I probably should have. I took about 6 weeks off from running or working out, because every time I would try, it would hurt. I slowly started adding running back into my lifestyle. I would get occasional pain, but it wasn't an everyday thing so I continued to do what I was doing. Now, I am having foot and ankle pain when running or do any type of jumping. The pain is the worst when I am finished with the run or work out. While I am in motion, it does not hurt as bad, but if I transition from running to walking, it begins to hurt. Should I have this checked out, and what do you all think it could be? I have attached a photo of the areas. Also, should I visit my local urgent care, or try to make an appt with an orthopedic doctor?

    Yes definitely get it checked rather than keep on using it like that. Not sure about what it us. I have pain in my feet a lot though currently fine with treatment. I personally have arthralgia. But you need a proper diagnosis.
