<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.The past several days I have been having redness and burning sensation on the inside part of my ankle, also very very itchy. My ankle became very swollen to where today I cannot even walk. It s even more red now and extremely painful. I am a 45 year old female, with no major health issues.  <response>: Hello, I understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to a strain ankle. I suggest to rest avoid irritating it, ice pack 3 times daily for 10 minutes, compression 247, and as much elevation as you can. If it gets worse over the next several days, you should consult an orthopedist for further evaluation. Sounds like a common sprain, and I know some people forgot a minor twist until 2 days later when the symptoms develop. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
