Ankle

The ankle is a complex joint where the lower leg meets the foot. It allows you to move your foot up and down and side to side, enabling activities like walking, running, and jumping. The ankle is made up of bones (tibia, fibula, and talus), ligaments that hold it together, and tendons that connect muscles to bones. Proper functioning of the ankle relies on strong bones, flexible joints, and supportive soft tissues, which work together to provide stability and mobility during daily movement and sport activities.
