The ankle joint is where your shin bone (tibia), calf bone (fibula) and talus bone meet. It joins your foot to your lower leg. Your ankle also contains cartilage, ligaments, muscles, nerves and blood vessels. Your ankles move in two main directions and you use them any time you move your feet and legs.
