Foot & Ankle Arthritis Symptoms

Ankle arthritis is a pervasive degenerative disease, and gets worse as life progresses due to wear-and-tear of the joint. Often times a patient can develop ankle joint problems without experiencing significant amounts of pain. As the arthritis degenerates further, patients will experience pain and stiffness during activity. As the condition worsens patients may feel pain even while resting.
