Possible deep vein thrombosis (DVT.) Get it checked ASAP. If you have a blood clot in your leg, it can break loose and obstruct flow to your lungs--which is usually fatal, but quick.
Oh, and DO NOT MASSAGE THE LEG.

I badly sprained my ankle about 3 weeks ago. I was in a hurry going down the stairs, lost my balance and landed on a bad side of my left foot, causing my left ankle to be stretched going on the inside. The first 48 hours were excruciating and the pain was un-believable. I've never had a serious ankle injury before.
So I immediately treated it using the RICE method. The following day, the bruising and swelling were so horrible. I found out that I got a second degree sprain and immediately panicked after that. I had a football game on that week and it been looking forward to it because I've been training for rt. I had teammates that had similar injuries and it took them months to fully recover, some of them stopped playing altogether. So I kinda had a short-term depression because I can't imagine myself not being able to run and play sports anymore.
Because I was so desperate to recover again, I contacted a lot of people that I know who do sports and asked them if they had similar injuries. One friend of mine, from the boy's football team in my university, told me about H.E.M. Ankle Rehab. I got a copy 4 days after I got injured. I immediately read and followed what was instructed and felt improvement on the first day. I was able to walk a bit, but I was in pain.
A couple of days after that, the swelling and bruising were subsid-ing significantly and on the fourth day, I was walking comfortably again. Although I've had felt a bit of stiffness, I continued doing what was instructed. My sister was surprised that I have recovered this fast. I told her about this book and was shocked on how effective the procedures were. I'm just so happy that this book was shared to me and how effective it is.
Heal your ankle fully & fast?

it may be hypertension (retaining water). I used to have it because the job I had required me to sit for 8-9 hrs a day and the chair I had didn't really support my legs. I needed to get up and walk around every 15 minutes and I also took pills to get rid of the water. It was worse in my right foot and leg. behind my right ankle, looked like an egg but it was all water retension. I would suggest you see your doctor as soon as possible.

I am up there myself. Edema can be a warning for many different diseases related to heart and lungs, and circulation. You could have clogged arteries. Best to go for a phsical as soon as possibe. I had an episode were my normally thin legs trippled in size I was on hormonal treatment for Menopause and a heavy smoker. In all actually i shoudn't have been presribed them. I figured that out myself. I was trying to have a good time in Atlantic City. Quit the hormones and within a day they went to normal. I was lucky. You really do need to see a Doctor. Diabetes could be another culprit. Please get it checked out/

you're able to see a Podiatrist, I reckon your foot or feet are out of alignment. In different words your foot has collapsed, in all threat strolling on the interior like i become and hence the ankle soreness! The podiatrist would be waiting to make you custom insole to assist the foot thereby taking the rigidity off the ankle and thereby realigning your posture, so no leg soreness, knee soreness, hip soreness or decrease back soreness. I in easy terms desire I had observed my situation until eventually now, with the help of the time it become observed I had a prolapsed disc. I knew no longer something approximately feet being supported, no longer to show aligned, yet I in easy terms desire I did until eventually now the disc in the backbone went. solid success playstation in basic terms verify the backside of your footwear and see how they positioned on? Do you positioned on the outer heel down first? according to threat the outer sole? I used to yet i bought a clean pair of footwear, positioned the hot insoles in and howdy presto, the wear and tear is now lifeless center of the heel and sole. First time in my existence i'm donning out a pair of footwear lifeless center of heel and sole and not outer heel and sole.
