Swelling and redness near the ankle joint  might be  because of many conditions ranging from arthritis to infection and other more serious conditons. Uric acid is normal. so that rules out gout. but the other conditions and proper examination of the patient to be done to come to a final diagnosis.  analgesics  and ice pack can reduce your pain temporarily but see a doctor as soon as possible.
