Ankle/ Foot Tingling, Bump Or Swelling Inside Of Leg. Should I Be Concerned? Elevate It? Ice It?
My ankle/ foot has been tingling a little bit the last few days. I was on my feet a lot today and I noticed a little bump or swelling on the inside of my leg, just above the ankle. I don t remember injuring it, but I was on my feet a lot over the weekend as we were on vacation and it started to bother me on the car ride home. Should I be concerned? Elevate it? Ice it?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The swelling with the tingling sensation in the area could be due to an injury in the area. Rest and elevation, icing and mild anti inflammatory pain killers should help to reduce the symptoms.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
