Locking ankles

Does anyone else have locking ankles. My right one is the worse.
Walking along, it suddenly locks up and I almost fall. If I have sat down a long time and then get up, it has locked so that when I go to walk away from my chair, I nearly fall flat on my face. It use to be really bad before I was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis,
It is making me wonder if the MTX is really doing it's job if all these probs are happening again.
Probably due to the colder weather but I can't go muffled up with thick socks, gloves and scarf all day.

i have a similiar problem but it's my knee that locks, ouch!
i really am noticing a big increase in stiffness and pain now the weather is colder and damp, it does make me think that mtx isn't doing as much as i thought either.
oh the joy!
fingers crossed things get better!

Hi,
I find my hips let me down, ahhhhhhh' especially if I've sat down for more than a few minutes. Mines got worse with the weather!
Love Sue0
