Brief Answer: you need evaluation Detailed Answer: Hi XXXXX, Having severe pain in both ankles to the extent of being unable to walk is a serious concern. I strongly feel there may be a calcium or Vitamin D3 Deficiency in you. I would suggest you to get your serum calcium and Vitamin D 3 levels checked and report back to me. In the meantime, you can start yourself on calcium supplements like Shelcal- HD on a daily basis. Consume a glass of milk daily. For time being, you can take pain killers like Brufen or crocin to get rid of the pain. Write back for more discussion on this. Regards,
Note: For further queries, consult a joint and bone specialist, an Orthopaedic surgeon. Book a Call now.
