Treatment will likely be ongoing. Surgery can be an option. I recommend you be evaluated by a foot and ankle specialist (podiatrist) for diagnosis, and treatment options,
Generally, treatment for ankle arthritis can range from a few weeks to several months or even longer. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional to get a personalized assessment and treatment plan. They can provide more specific information about the expected duration of treatment based on your individual circumstances.
That is a question that cannot be answered. Arthritis is an inflammatory condition that cannot be "treated and fixed." A Chiropractor can help the muscles and joints in that area, which can then change the motion of the entire structure, but arthritis is not a one-and-done procedure.
The only way to get rid of arthritis is with surgery. There are multiple types of surgery that can performed, depending on how bad the arthritic joint is. The length and type of treatments to help with the symptoms of arthritis varies. I would recommend seeing your local podiatrists.
