Question:
Answers:
I have the same problem. No matter what I do, my ankle swells. My doctor told me to try some Aleve and to ice it a few times a day for about 20 minutes while having it elevated. Try that or try ibuprofen. Both medicines are anti-inflammatory. I wish her lots of luck. Unfortunately that didn't work for me and i have surgery next week, so I hope hers doesn't end up the same way.
If it keeps bothering her, look up a foot and ankle specialist. I tried seeing an orthopedic surgeon for it and all he did was take an x-ray and said it's not bone related and didn't do anything.
How long has the swelling been going on?There might be something else wrong with her ankle.
Get some frozen peas on her feet tied for abt 20mins everyday at evening.
