Hello,
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that high blood pressure with ankle swelling is most likely due to cardiac disease which requires proper evaluation.
It's recommended for you to get basic cardiac evaluation done which includes ECG and Echocardiograpy and consult a Cardiologist with reports.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
