What Is The Air Bubble On The Back Side Of My Ankle?

Hey I feel like there is an air bubble on the back side of my ankle. It comes and goes but has been more recent. I've had it for a few months. I feel like by rotating my ankle I could pop it but I can't. The other day it was so bad I couldnt walk. Any ideas?

Hello,

There are many things but the most possible may be a cyst from the tendons sheath. For sure you need a clinical examination with imaging study. I advise you to go and check it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
