As the ankle was involved inside the cast, swelling is seen in the ankle. As mentioned previously, it will take time to go away. Get a consultation if your problem is persistent or if you have any further questions.

Don’t worry swelling present on fracture site most of the time is not necessarily present. On ankle joint if is present can be due to tight plaster . Hot water fomentation, no massage, limb elevation and medications all needed.
