Swollen ankles and swollen feet can be caused by a variety of things such as pregnancy, medications, diseases (congestive heart failure, diabetes). Treatment depends on the cause.

But if it is sudden and the swelling is excessive, it could be a sign of preeclampsia. Also, if you have injured your foot or ankle, swelling can occur.
