Question : Hello, my left foot has a weird pain/some swelling. It's not in the arch but to the right toward my ankle.
Brief Answer:
Kindly more information is needed.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear ,
The foot pain toward ankle is commonly related to overuse of the foot or injuries.
Kindly more information is needed to help through the diagnosis.
Have you injured your ankle lately?
Do you practice sports?
Did this pain happened before?
Meanwhile, I suggest to rest and avoid foot movements that can trigger the pain.
You can use anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest to use cold compresses for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind regards!
