Anterior ankle impingement is a characteristic sports-related condition. In this case report, we discuss a young man with antero-lateral pain in the ankle referable to an antero-lateral impingement at the ankle. After patient information on the likely benign nature of the symptoms and on the prognosis, we suggested a conservative management to control the pain and improve ankle function using passive techniques, therapeutic exercises and self-mobilization exercises to perform at home.
