So I've been experiencing a weird pain on the top of my left foot at the ankle (basically the opposite side of the Achilles tendon). There are a couple tendons there that feel tender and sore when I rub them. I sometimes experience a sharp pain when planting (I plant my left foot to jump) or when landing, but most of the time it isn't noticeable. I don't remember injuring it..just one day it popped up when I was working out and it has lingered for the next month. It definitely isn't getting worse but I'm not sure it's getting much better. During normal walking or jogging I don't feel anything, it only pops up when I try to be explosive off my left foot or when I'm stretching my foot outwards.
Could this be an issue with my shoes? Do I need more arch support? Anyone else experience something like this?

does it pinch/restrict range of motion when you do this?

Yeah. I can't bend my knee too far forward without it hurting the front of the ankle.

yup same thing happens for me

Any suggestions on how to deal with this injury?

Well, time seems to have healed my ankle. Had to skip workouts for a couple weeks though and feel like my left leg is a bit weaker than before.
