Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Since knocking my ankle on a concrete pot over a week ago my left ankle and top half of foot swell during the day and settle over night. Also on resting my right foot over I notice a deep indent appeared and took some time to settle. Other indents have also occurred at different times.
Ankle swelling after trauma is very common. It is painful condition. You need ice packs. Limb elevation during day. Do not sit cross legged. Apply crepe bandage. There is one cold compression ankle belt available from Donjoy company which is very helpful for relief.
