    Hi Gabrielle

    for someone who doesn’t really know the anatomy of the foot, this was a pretty patronizing way of answering, so yes, little offense taken..

    the thing i meant by anklebone was the “talus”. my mistake…

    but there is one joint between tibia/fibula and talus (= true ankle joint, or talocrural joint) AND there is one joint between talus and calcaneus (which is called subtalar joint), so 2 joints in total.

    i hope this made you happy 🙂

    There are 14 major joints:

    1. Shoulders
    2. Elbows
    3. Wrists
    4. Hips
    5. Knees
    6. Upper Ankles (between shin and anklebone)
    7. Lower Ankles (between anklebone and heel bone)

    Feet/ankles are therefore different from hands/wrists!
