What Causes Ankle Swelling Post Posterior Tendonitis Recovery?
I have recovered from posterior tendinitis in my left ankle within the last 3 months. I am using orthotics from a foot docto in both shoes. Now my right ankle is swelling and becoming painful just as the left did. I am trying to follow the procedure I went through for the left ankle without going back to the foot specialist. Should I be doing that?

Chances are you are now having a right tendonitis. try what you did for the left side only for a few days(3 days) and see if it helps. if it doesn't help than visit your foot specialist
