Yeah some odd stiffness of the ankle and positive I didn't sprain it or anything. I've had it a while, at night it goes away. Around noon it's back and skin is kinda sensitive . It's pissen me off and annoyin the hell outa me. I tried some Lasix but that just sent me into cramps of death in both legs even with good fluid intake. And I'm tryin to ditch the water .catch 22
Does it ache when you rest it - like while you're not putting pressure on it? Have you elevated it at night and does it reduce afterwards? Any redness or warmth? Reason I ask is you want to be careful you're not dealing with a clot. If you're dealing with venous reflux (blood's not returning up due to an obstruction, i.e. a clot), you'll have skin issues as well from the pressure that builds as the smaller surface veins take on the volume the blocked vein(s) cannot. Not trying to frighten you, but I will say that insurance or not, I'd advise you to keep a close eye on it, and if you can, try to get an ultrasound of it. If it is a clot and a superficial one, then the body will take care of it, but a deep vein is a different story entirely and can be very serious. Additionally, dehydration contributes to clotting, so lose the lasix for sure! Good luck with everything man. Be well.
