Try doing balance boards and resistance bands with ankle movements. It helped my pain, and be sure to where some kind of ankle support when you play games especially. -------------- I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is the moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle-victorious. --Vince Lombardi "Decide what you want, decide what you are willing to exchange for it.

These work your calves alot, however also work the muscle that runs along the shine to the foot. This will help stablize the foot. I'd suggest gettinga way form wearing some kind of ancel brass, it supports it, however dosen't make the ancle work and support the foot itself. -------------- if you kick a tiger in the @$$ , you then have to descide what to do with the teath end. any guy can hold a girl by the hand, but only the select few can hold her by her feet!
