When I was 10 I started having issues with my ankle joint "locking" into place. I wouldn't be able to bend it forward or back (like you need for a walking motion), and would have to roll it around gently sideways and slowly get a wider and wider ROM in my roll until it popped and I could do a straight back and forth motion and walk normally again. As a young athlete, it was a bitch, because I'd be sprinting down the soccer field and mid stride my ankle would lock and I'd be fucking hobbling. Finally at 13 my parents decided maybe it was an issue worth seeing a doctor for. The orthopedic specialist told me he had no idea what was going on, that puberty does weird things to kids heads and it was all in my imagination. Told me by the time my hormones stabilized it would go away, said just wait til 15 or so, I promise you'll be fine. I'm in my 30s and the fucking thing locked up as recently as last week, so he's clearly a genius.
