Ankle Pain

Dr Abrams, I recently left a message on my daughters pain in her ankle. The pain is only felt when she notices that her vein is laying over the top of the ankle bone. Can you tell me if this is normal and if it is why is she having so much pain and is there something we can do for it? She twisted her ankle about 5 years ago. Thank you.

    I am sorry I can’t really tell you much without examining her. Some considerations are possibly that the vein could be varicosed and when it swells up, it hurts. As far as it being normal, I would not think so. I suggest you see a podiatrist for further evaluation.
