Muscles are responsible for the movement and the primary source of the ankle and foot injury is a movement performed excessively, repetitively, and for a long duration that exceeds tissue capabilities.[1]Weight bearing is a primary function of the foot and ankle and as a team, these two structures often have different responsibilities.
