Hello there, Well swelling and inflammation are two different things and are caused by different reasons....sometimes the problem could be limited to the local area...or sometimes a more systemic involvement of internal organs is there.... Can you upload a photo of your feet and ankle swelling along with symptoms and medication history. Regards.
