Would a really bad sunburn on my legs make my ankles swell?!


Question:

Would a really bad sunburn on my legs make my ankles swell?

I wouldn't have thought so but I have no idea why my ankles are swelling.


Answers:

it can. Burns cause a shift in fluids in the body, so edema (or fluid filled tissues) results. The worse the burn the more pronounced the shifts.
