Yes acupuncture can be an effective feeling for ankle joint pain
Depending on the severity of the condition, acupuncture can help improve the quality of life. If there is a physical issue with the ankle, most likely acupuncture would only help with temporary relief. The best thing to do would be to contact your primary care physician and check with them to see whether or not alternative medicine would be beneficial for your condition.

Acupuncture is very effective in fixing ankle pain. In the past few years, I have fixed many such patients with acupuncture together with Chinese massage (Tuina) and topical herbs. Dr. Zhang
Yes, acupuncture can fix ankle joint pain.
Yes
Acupuncture with massage and probably herbs might help relieve your ankle joint pain gradually.
As with any type of health care, there are no guarantees with acupuncture, but the success rate for all types of pain is very high. So I would certainly contact your nearest acupuncturist and give it a try. You have nothing to lose but your pain.
We will exam 1st. Then provide dry needling 1st. Patients will find instant results in general.
Depending on patients’ medical histories and conditions, each patient will have different responses. Patients will have to follow up in 3-7days depending on severity.
Patients will be examined again on how much difference they have experienced since the initial acupuncture treatment.
Then we can give patients a plan for symptomatology.
If we find limitations in improvements, we will apply different plans as a holistic approach.

A lot will depend on what, exactly, is going on in the ankle and how you define 'fixed'.
Acupuncture can sometimes cause a complete cessation of pain that persists more or less indefinitely.
Sometimes we end up in a maintenance situation where most of the time the pain is either not present or present at a very low level. Eventually, the pain will start to increase and the patient will need another acupuncture session. The time between sessions can be weeks or months.
Some people (about 5% of the population) do not respond to acupuncture treatment. Some people respond, but the rate of improvement is so slow that it's not functional for them.
If you haven't yet done so, your first stop should be your primary care provider. Get your ankle x-rayed so that you and your providers (including any acupuncturists) have an idea of what's going on.
