Findings show that the presence of pain at the ankle can alter participants' proprioceptive threshold during gait. Clinical assessment of proprioception should therefore carefully consider the presence of pain when evaluating a patient's performance using clinical proprioceptive test and consider the negative effect of pain on proprioceptive threshold for test interpretation.
