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.
Hi, I'm a male, 24 years, yesterday night I slept at around 1.00 PM at that time there is no pain in my ankle, but I felt very cold. The climate in my environment was also becoming very cold and its raining. But after sometime i felt pain in my ankles so that I was awakened in between my sleep many times due to the pain. When I woke up at 8 AM in the morning I felt like I'm having fever. My ankle is still paining and I feel feverish. Is it a serious problem? How to get rid of this?
You may begin icing it for the first 48 hrs, massaging with topical gels, Advil tab twice daily after meals, avoid vigorous movement, wear ankle support and rest with elevating your ankles in 2 pillows your fever shows some kind of infection so i recommend anti-flu drugs, ibuprofen tab 500 mg twice daily and nasal steaming will help.
If swelling of ankles increases or fever sustains visit your physician for proper management and imaging by an x-ray or MRI. Please consider a 5 star rating with some positive feedback if the information was helpful.
Hope the above information helps you. Any further clarifications feel free to ask.
Regards, Dr. Ahmed Aly Hassan
