Since you have given all the reasons why swelling in the ankle occurs. Now second part should be treatment of the cause, please explain different treatment for different causes.

I’ve had a painful lower leg and now swollen ankle for a week. My doctor told me to not panic and just take a pain killer and inflammation medication. However this is worrying given that she was not aware of any possible causes of a swollen ankle/leg. DVT was ruled out but nothing else was tested.

Very informative video, although I still have questions for my case:

I am in relatively good health, frequently exercise e.g. jumping rope for >30 mins a day, not overweight, not diabetic, no heart conditions. However, my left ankle and the outside of my left foot have had a small amount of swelling/edema that gradually increases during the day and then mostly disappears after sleeping at night. I don't see any difference between my left and right legs, and my right ankle & foot are not swelling at all. I'm not on any medications and haven't had any recent injuries, but this situation has been present for a little over 6 months with no change.

I am able to massage the left foot to reduce some swelling during the day, but gradually it builds back up until I rest and/or elevate the foot.

What could cause this unilateral foot & ankle swelling?
