Hi Tillychase and welcome to the Versus Arthritis online Community.

I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with osteoarthritis in your ankle. Can you say why there is a plate holding the ankle together?

Our website has some good information on osteoarthritis in the ankle which includes suggestions for exercise and looking after your feet.

You should also consult your doctor or rheumatologist for proper medical advice and to decide on a diagnosed course of action. Do come back and let us know how you are getting on.

Best wishes

Brynmor
