Swollen Ankles
Swelling of the ankles may be due to many
factors, including trauma, infection, tumor, varicose veins, improper function
of the lymphatic system, poor circulation, hypertension, and congestive heart
failure, to name a few. The foot and ankle surgeon will recommend treatment
based on examination and diagnosis of the cause of the swelling.
