ankle pain

My son is in 8th grade & plays football.
Just the last couple of days, his ankles have been hurting & he states it makes him run slower.
Does he need ankle braces or is this soemthing more serious that he should see a physician.

    Ankle braces might or might not help. There are literally hundred on the market, so you might be on a wild goose chase. I recommend you have him see a sports medicine doctor either an orthopedist or podiatrist.
