    Hi,

    I have a patient at the moment that I have been treating for some time with a variety of foot complaints. Initially, she experienced quite sever tarsal tunnel syndrome pain that has been effectively treated with CMFO. The latest problem involves:
    • during the start of activity (i.e. walking/running)
    • a build up of pressure within the ankle
    • leading to a painful "popping" of the ankle
    • after the 'pop' a sesation of pain
    • happens more with the Left ankle but occasionally with the Right
    • on palpation the lateral (sinus tarsi) region elicits pain
    • Pt reports that it more frequently happens when her feet are cold

    Current orthotics are providing good control. Any thoughts?
