What Causes Ankle Swelling And Rashes?
My ankles are swollen and have been for five-six days. I have developed what looks like a rash around both ankles. The rash does not itch, it isn t raised, it isn t painful. I have sprayed insect repellent where the rash has developed. Was wondering what I may have.

Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, first do not use insect repellent on the rash, just take some rest, keep your legs on pillow and elevated, you can take antiallegic medications, and let the symptoms vanish. hope the things get fine early.
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
Thanks
