Swollen Ankles

A wide variety of causes can lead to swollen ankles. Whether caused by cardiac, respiratory, liver, kidney, or peripheral vascular disorders, swollen ankles may represent more serious underlying health issues.

See your podiatrist if you are experiencing swollen ankles. Treatment may be as simple as elevating your feet whenever possible during the day, wearing support stockings, or taking a diuretic (water pill).
