Actually it was my plantar-fasica that I had gotten micro-tears in. which runs from the ball of the foot to the heel, on the bottom of the foot. I've already been through numerous therapies and doctors for that one, thats why I had these custom inserts made for my shoes. But part that is hurting now is my left ankle, in the back of the ankle , I just wanted to try an ankle brace and see if it would relieve some of the 'quirky' pains.
