Yes you can have osteoarthritis in your feet. The best thing to do is keep moving, soak your feet well in Epsom Salts (draws the soreness out) at least 3 - 4 times a week. Wear good shoes and not cheap ones and women should keep away from wearing any type of higher heel than what they call a 'cubal heel.' Also too flat shoes are not good for the feet. Go to a store such as 'Naturalizers' and buy well made shoes that are well padded inside on the bottom to cushion your feet.

∙ 13y agoYes. You can have Arthritis in your ankle or any other joint in your body. Think of an arthritic spur as a slender sharp nail growing out from a bone. You can have such a piece of calcium grow out from anywhere you have a bone in your body. If you press down on that nail, it will hurt. You will go ouch. You might say something else.
However, also like a nail, you can break it off by continuing to rotate and exercising that joint. The exercise can be low impact, but every joint should go through its full range of motion to get at every arthritic spur.
