Okay...question...In the last few weeks, I have noticed that my left foot and ankle are swelling throughout the day. It doesn't hurt to walk on it. I have had some soreness just under the ankle bone that felt sort of like a stone bruise, sore to the touch, but no pain while moving. Well, that's almost better but still its swollen. What could be causing this? Coud it be that I am not drinking enough (I have around 70 oz. of fluid a day including my protein drink). Or could it be my shoes that I wear to work out in? They are old but feel very comfortable while I am wearing them. Could it be they are worn out and causing strain on my ankle? OR could it be something else? I have had ankle/foot swelling before, like when I was way heavier and while I was pregnant...but this just seems weird to me. Any one have any ideas?
