Ankle Injury and Rash
I injured my ankle in the gym a few months ago, and I figured it was a torn ligament or something. It was all along the back of my ankle and my Achilles' tendon that was sore. It was painful to walk or put pressure on for a few months, but I never got it checked out. Now I have raised red skin in the same area. The skin is really dry and sometimes itchy. Could they be related or is it something else entirely?

Proper evaluation by an orthopaedic surgeon is required. Swelling can appear due to the underlying injury tendon
