The ankle joint is primarily considered a uniaxial joint, as it mainly allows movement in one plane—dorsiflexion and plantarflexion. However, it does have some limited biaxial characteristics due to the subtalar and other surrounding joints, which permit slight inversion and eversion. Overall, the ankle's primary function is in one axis of movement.
