How can I sort out my ankle problem?

Well my usual daily comfortable shoe has to have a heel on it, and I started belly dance class about 4 months ago and we have to have flat feet but it hurts my ankles so much I think because im used to wearing heeled shoes, I’ve started trying to wear flats recently again but my ankles still hurt from it, is there anyway I can get rid of the pain? Or make my feet feel comfortable when flat on the floor, im so used to heeled shoes that I have to stand on my tip toes when I walk without shoes on because its so uncomfortable otherwise

Answer #1

My best friend used to walk on the balls of her feet when she was younger. I didn’t really know why. She went to the doctor, and it turns out that her tendons were so used to that position (similar to the position when wearing heels). My advice would be to go to a doctor and then a reference to see a physical therapist. They will be able to give you specific exercises that you need to get your tendons back in regular position.
