I am getting a pain in my right heel/outside of the ankle.

Sitting at work, if I raise my right leg up to horizontal, and curl my toes back towards my shin, I am getting a stabbing/burning pain on the outside of my right ankle/heel (on the side of the achilles tendon if that makes sense).

Anyone got any idea what is causing it?

I have recently started cycling again, but I think I had this before I had started the cycling.

I can walk fine, sometimes, if I stand on my heels I get the tingle a little bit but this is the worst pain when I do as described above.

It has only been a couple of weeks so i'll keep an eye on it and maybe go visit the docs if it doesn't clear up but I thought i'd throw it open to the PH physicians!

P.S. I did suffer from Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome years ago when I played 5-a-sides.

I ended up having to play with a Muller ankle support on that locked my ankle and had metal strips down either side but this has not been an issue for many years since stopping football.

Sounds like Tendinitis of Plantar Facilitis, but that is what doctors are for.
