[|Human|] Hi Doctor! I have a swollen ankle, tenderness to touch, itchy, painful and it is really irritating me. I am 3 and half months pregnant and I notice that it comes out only when I am pregnant and for my first baby delivery. Please advise I really need your help.Thank you so much! Irene
[|AI|]  Hi, congrats on your pregnancy, motherhood is the best experience. Pain is in both ankles, it could be reactive arthritis which gets exaggerated, when body is under stress of hormones as is your case now. Try,1 Apply crêpe bandages from foot to ankle 2 Take Paracetamol 500 mg BID, it's safe in pregnancy.3 keep them elevated when you are at rest.4 get investigated once pregnancy is over. Hope that helps.
