What Causes A Lump On The Ankle With Numbness?
Hi, I have numbness in and around my left ankle with a soft lump just under ankle. Numbness feels like it is creeping up my calf muscle. I had quite an intense back and lower lumber massage on Friday and has been like this since that time, could be coincidental. Your thoughts?

Hello,
Most probably it will be a contusion or sprain.
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like Aceclofenac/Serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
