This is a problem that can follow the inadequate rehabilitation of ankle sprains. The sinus tarsi is a small tunnel of bone between two bones in the ankle joint that can also get strained during an ankle sprain. Becasue of the pain and swelling associated with the ankle sprain, the sinus tarsi syndrome is often missed until later when there is a chronic problem from the ankle sprain. Treatment of this is usually exercises and manipulation. Sometimes injection therapy is used for sinus tarsi syndrome.
