Swelling of the ankle can be caused by many different things. Sometimes exercises alone will not help ankle swelling. Sometimes support stockings, anti-inflammatory medication might be needed. Would recommend getting an x-ray of the ankle to determine what may be causing swelling. Jonathan M. Kletz, DPM Texas Foot WorksDallas, Athens and Gun Barrel City Texas214-340-8885

The best exercises are stretching with resistant bands and circle the ankle joint. Use compression socks up to the ankle or knee high between 10-15mmHg.
