How many days this ankle pains will be there during pregnancy. It's very horrible and I'm unable to walk. No swelling in the ankles only pain is there.

Question

Hi dear, To catch the accurate reason for your pain in ankle with pregnancy needs detailed history, your ankle examination, a few tests. I don't know your pregnancy duration, both ankle or single ankle and past medical history. In pregnancy Xrays are usually not done in early pregnancy and avoided in late pregnancy. I suggest you to take rest till your pain subsides. You can wear ankle support anklets etc. You should consider calcium and vitamin D supplements for your bone health. In pregnancy body demand for higher calcium intake. You can try cold pack application Walk carefully as Ankle Spains are not uncommon during pregnancy. You should visit Orthopaedic doctor. Wish you happy pregnancy. Thanks.
