Regards Lybrate user. The ankle area is quite compact and skin flexibility / elasticity is fair over the area. Swelling around the ankles may occur due to trauma (ankle twist, fractures) or heart / kidney problems or lymph drainage problems or arthritis. Usually heart / kidney / lymph drainage problems tend to be more generalized in one or both legs. It would be in the foot, ankle and leg regions and just not around the ankle. If you have had any history of trauma and the swelling had occurred a...more

Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone. Stiffness have developed due to weakness of the ligaments &inflammed cartilage. Specific knee exercises will also help ie. Keeping ball underneath the knee and keep pressing it. That's the simple exercise which will help you to strengthen the knee.

A cleaning lady that worked for my family has a husband with a debilitating condition, which hasn't being diagnosed yet: - his knees hurt a lot, they swell, the back of his knees also hurt - the soles of his feet hurt, his ankles swell - there are days when he wakes up with a fever - when the pain is acute, the spine hurts - his lower back hurts at the level of his right lung - he feels a burning sensation when urinating - he has lost a lot of weight (almost 20 kg since december) - when someone tries to make him stand up, he cannot stand straight due to the pain in his spine - there are days when he feels pain in the pelvis, on the left side his problem started in 2016, along with a condition similar to psoriasis on the skin (it was not diagnosed). The symptoms worsened in december, just after one of the sars-cov-2 vaccines. He can only afford government hospitals, which take months to even give you appointment. She has some lab results from tests they asked her to get, which I could send if needed. Thanks.

Regards lybrate-user. With the provided information, it appears the disorder is affecting multiple systems - joints, urinary system, gastrointestinal (relating to weight loss). He may benefit from a consult with a rheumatologist. Rheumatological disorders are different from other disorders as they involve autoimmune issues (that is our own body's defense system, affects our own tissues). They tend to affect multiple systems at same time, and often tend to be misdiagnosed / mismanaged.

Hi, based on your information, it appears you are having inflammatory polyarthritis, most probably rheumatoid arthritis. A consultation with a rheumatologist would be quite helpful to you at this stage of symptoms.
Hope this is helpful to you. Wish your a speedy recovery.

Rest prevents further injury and avoids stress on already inflamed tissue.
Ice is probably the best treatment.
Ice will counteract the increased blood flow to the injured area.
It will reduce the swelling, redness, and warmth.
Applied soon after the injury, ice will prevent much of the inflammation from happening.
Compression can help keep down swelling. Compression wraps, such as ace bandages, do not provide much support to prevent movement of the ankle, and you should not a...more
