<human>: I did an endurance challenge at high altitude 3 days ago. At the last obstacle I fell on my shin good amount of scraping don t see any significant bruising. Have swelling mostly around the ankle foot area. No pain when walking in the ankle or shin was able to so a workout without pain. Treating with ice and elevation. Trying to stay off of it hasn t gotten worse or better in the last 24 hours. Any idea what could be going on?
<bot>: Hi, Thanks for your query. Causes of swelling around ankle foot area include chronic venous insufficiency, Heart related issues, kidney disorders, liver problems, water retention etc. A thorough and detailed evaluation along with a few investigations are needed to establish the correct diagnosis. I suggest you to consult a General physician for further evaluation and management. I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
