"If you have swelling of the ankles, this may indicate the risk of not only high blood pressure, but also heart failure," - said in the material. High blood pressure puts an increased strain on the heart. Over time, this can lead to decreased blood circulation and hypertrophy of the heart muscle. "This allows fluid to build up in your ankles, leading to swelling," the British experts explained.
