I've been dealing with medial ankle pain on and off for the past year or so. It originally began when I stupidly,are a dramatic increase in my running mileage because I fell behind on my schedule for running a half marathon. Initially it back my mileage but continued to have pain that began to progressively occur sooner and sooner in my run. I went to a (super attractive...just saying) orthopedic specialist who took x-rays which showed mild periosteum aggravation but no bone involvement.He prescribed me 4 months of no high level activity which I abided to. I began gradually running and had only gotten back to about 2 miles when the pain, swelling and strange bruising reoccurred. This "injury" is more frustrating than painful but I refuse to believe that at 24 I will have to give up running. We shall see!
