Hello lybrate-user, ankles are weight bearing joints and as your weight is on higher side it is causing strain on the ankle joints. Another reason can be water retention, if you have swelling along with pain. Home remedy - soak your legs in hot water (bearable hot) wirh half cup epsom salt (magnesium sulphate). It is a muscle relaxant and will give you relief every time you use it. For proper medicinal treatment you can consult me if you want to go for natural remedies without side effects (homeopathy n herbal).
