Answer #1

walking in a swimming pool would be a could start. low inpact, water supports your weight and provides resistance. Google “low impact water aerobics” Physical therapy would be nice if you can afford it. Peace, Sting

Answer #2

Did you doctor give you some exercises? Most of the time they do. Well, when you break your ankle you will probably always have problem with it. I broke mine when I was six and it still hurts from time to time. good luck. And maybe you shoud talk to you doctor.

Answer #3

I would go to the doctor and maybe suggest physical therapy. I did it for my knee it didn’t exactly help me but I know many people that have gone to physical therapy for many different things and it helped them a lot. Maybe even just trying to walk for a while at a slow pace and when you feel comfortable keep speeding up and going for a longer distance.

Answer #4

well I have ankel issues my ankle bones never grew with my body so get an xray and ask a doctor
