I had the swollen ankle problem a long time ago when I was pregnant with my son. I also notice the same issue if I eat something with too much sodium. Maybe try restricting your sodium and drinking more water. You may also want to check with your doctor to make sure it's not high blood pressure or a circulatory problem.

Usually when your ankles swell, you have too much salt in your diet. Your feet can also swell. If this is occuring at night and you are sitting on a chair or couch you should elevate your legs. Also if you are on your feet a lot during the day, you can wear support hose to help this problem. Watch you sale intake!!!!!

It could be a reaction to medication. Or it could be high blood pressure. Call your doctor.
