What is the reason for thick ankles

In summer, people's ankles are exposed because the weather is too hot, so everyone wears shorts and socks. At this time, it is very important to have good-looking ankles. We may see that some people have very thick ankles, which looks very ugly. In fact, thick ankles are not normal. Some people’s ankles become thicker due to diseases. So what methods can be used to make ankles thinner?

If your ankle is thick, you need to rule out edema, tumors, hemangiomas, or local venous obstruction. This needs to be judged and analyzed based on your specific situation. It is recommended that you go to the hospital in time. The doctor will treat it according to the specific situation. Don't stay up late or overwork, keep a happy mood, raise the affected limb, and don't move.

Thick ankles are mainly caused by heart and kidney problems. You should go to the hospital for a specific check-up to see if there are any problems with your heart and kidneys. Excessive activity can also cause it. You can also go to the orthopedics department to take a look and take an X-ray to see if you have sprained your ankle. A sprain can also cause thick ankles, and you should receive symptomatic treatment.

How to make your ankle thinner:

The ankle area is basically made of bones and skin. If it is thick, it is because your bones are relatively large, and there is no way to reduce the size. Another possibility is that some people have swollen legs because they work long hours or stand frequently. At this time, you can try to make some barley porridge to drink, which is very helpful for reducing swelling. If the entire calf area is fat, you can adjust your diet and avoid running all the time, as this will form muscles that are difficult to lose.

1. Jogging

The intensity of jogging is relatively low, and the body can maintain exercise for a long time, mainly relying on the aerobic oxidation energy supply system for energy. Each jogging time should be controlled at around 30 to 60 minutes.

2. Skipping rope

Jumping rope is a very effective aerobic exercise and also a bodybuilding exercise. It not only strengthens the cardiopulmonary function and the muscles of various major parts of the body, but also trains the sense of balance and body agility. It is of great help to body coordination, posture, weight loss, etc. It is a sport suitable for all ages. As long as you skip rope at a speed of 120 to 140 times per minute, you can burn 600 to 1,000 calories in an hour.

3. Swimming

Swimming is an exercise based on aerobic metabolism performed in the special environment of water. It can increase energy consumption, speed up fat metabolism, reduce body fat storage, and dissipate more energy in the form of heat, thereby enhancing the direct effect of weight loss and accelerating the speed of weight loss. In addition, swimming can reduce the pressure of limb movement and play a certain protective role on the limbs. When using swimming to lose weight, the exercise time should be long, generally not less than 1 hour at a time, and can be controlled within 1 to 3 hours. The number of exercises per week should be no less than 3 times, or you can exercise every day. In this way, the total amount of exercise will be large, the energy consumption will be high, and the weight loss effect will be good. However, the intensity of exercise should be low, ensuring that aerobic exercise is the main focus.
