For some reason the last few days my right ankle has been hurting, it almost feels like I've twisted it but I don't remember hurting it? It doesn't seem anymore swollen than the left one, is this normal?
I went to the gp relating to a uti and asked them about it and he said he wasn't concerned as it wasn't swollen. Sometimes it hurts that I'm limping, other times in okay

Hmm I wouldn’t have thought that would be linked to pregnancy in any way. If you’re go wasn’t concerned then I’m sure it’s fine.

Sounds like you've just hurt your ankle, nothing to do with pregnancy.

I sometimes get a sore ankle because of an old injury in my back. Physio said the muscles in my right leg have to work a bit harder because of slipped discs to that side in my back, and then those muscles pull on my ankle ligaments and cause the pain. Pregnancy could be putting strain on your back and it's showing up in your ankle?

Thank you for the replies! I'm actually worrying it's a blood clot as I've read that can cause the pain 😞
I had bad back pain in my last pregnancy but not this time strangely so that could be a factor! I definitely haven't injured it but I was almost limping today, could just be the strain on my body from pregnancy
