Swollen ankle pain may be caused by injury factors, arthritis, tumors and other reasons.
1. Injury factors: patients are prone to inversion injury during walking or wearing inappropriate shoes, which will cause damage to soft tissues and ligaments of the ankle and wrist, resulting in obvious pain, and sometimes the degree of severity is higher, which may cause fracture of the ankle joint, and also cause swelling and pain of the ankle and wrist.
2. Arthritis: if the patient has osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis in ankle joint, it will also lead to swelling and pain in ankle and wrist, which is often wandering or aggravated in the morning, and the swelling and pain will be aggravated when it is cold or when the patient is tired.
3. Tumor: when there is tumor growth in the bone or soft tissue of the ankle, it can also lead to localized lumps on the ankle and wrist, resulting in localized swelling and pain, and the increase of the lumps will produce obvious pain, accompanied by symptoms of restricted activities.
Swelling and pain in the ankle may also be caused by cartilage damage, gout, varicose veins in the lower limbs and other reasons. If the symptoms are serious, you should go to the hospital in time to see a doctor and get a clear explanation of the cause of the problem and then give standardized treatment.
