Ankle Impingement - Foot Scientific

Ankle Impingement is what happens when a bone spur build ups up on the ankle bone. The bone spur usually ends up pinching the soft tissues in the ankle which causes pain and limited movement in the ankle joint. If the growth is on the front of the ankle bone it is referred to as Anterior Impingement and if the growth is on the back of the ankle bone it is called Posterior Impingement.

What causes Ankle Impingement?

An Ankle Impingement is caused when a bone spur or other boney growth develops on the ankle bone. This foreign growth then pinches the soft tissue surrounding the ankle joint, causing pain and limited movement in the patient. Past injuries such as an Ankle Sprain can also contribute towards developing an Ankle Impingement.
