How long does a swollen ankle take to heal?
Asked 2 years ago
I woke up this morning to quite badly swollen ankles. I'm not in any pain and I haven't had an injury. How long will it take for the swelling to go down?

Swelling makes ankles painful and it should go away on its own. However, if it does not get better in a few days, you need to see a doctor. In the interim, you may consider elevating your ankle above your heart. You can also use a cold compress or compression stockings.
