The swelling has just started over the past several months. I am a 51 yr old female. When my ankles swell I do have some leg pain
[|AI|]  Hello and Welcome to Ask A Doctor service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Swelling and pain in ankles in 52 years old female, that works on her feet every night might be related to venous stasis. If you stand for a long time of the day, in my opinion you can have this swelling because of the gravities effect on the fluids of our body. You should also consider hematologic cause, for this you have to consult a doctor for physical examination of the joints. You can use Naproxen (anti-inflammatory treatment to reduce pain and swelling), you can try to rest more, elevate the legs above your heart and put ice in the swollen area. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
