    Hi @Sammy20 - & welcome to the forum. Are you wondering about avascular necrosis of the ankle & a PIP claim?

    If so, PIP is less about a diagnosis, & more about how it may impact upon your mobility &/or any difficulty in doing any of the daily care activities of PIP reliably.

    You can see the activities looked at with PIP here: https://assets.ctfassets.net/vms0u05139aw/pip_descriptors.pdf/93820be60dcc6420191292ed56e2c95f/pip_descriptors.pdf

    You would need to score at least 8 points to get the standard rate for either the daily living or mobility components, & 12 or more points to receive the enhanced rate for either.
