Is Ankle Pain Normal When Shoes Apply Pressure On Heels?

My ankle has been giving me problems with certain shoes. Without shoes or very comfy shoes I have no issues, but if a shoes puts too much pressure on the back of my heal, my whole ankle aches and I can barely walk. But the second I take the shoe off, it s fine. Why would this be happening?

Hello,
It is very common issue and it is due to your foot shape which is not matching with the shoes. I would suggest you to stop wearing these shoes other wise it can create further problem in future.
I would also recommend you to follow these steps.
1.Hot water fomentation
2.Volini gel local application.
3.Elastocrape bandage in night.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
