Causes Of Ankle Edema (Swelling)

Ankle Edema (swelling) is often from injury or fluid retention.

The fifth metatarsal is a prime candidate for stress fracture because it is susceptible to a range of considerable dynamic forces, and the effects of any of these can be magnified by several common foot alignment deformities, such as flat feet.

These injuries often result from activities involving running and making sharp turns on firm surfaces. They generally take longer to heal in athletes, especially if the patient continues with activity, even to a moderate level.

Possible causes of ankle edema:

Ankle injury
Ankle strain (type of Ankle injuries)
Ankle sprain
Broken ankle
Prior ankle injury
Undetected ankle fracture
Local ankle conditions
Insect bite
Insect sting
Allergic reaction (type of Adverse reaction)
