Suggest Treatment For Pain In Ankle Radiating To Leg And Foot

Sometimes when I move my ankle, the pain shoots up in my shin and it feels like someone has taken a pipe wrench and twist my shin. Sometimes the pain goes down my foot and sends out pulsating brief periods of pain. This has been going on for sometime. Sometimes, I admit that there is not pain, but lately, the pain is happening more and more
