"Cankles" is a term used to describe the appearance of thick or wide ankles without clear definition from the lower calf. While cankles can be a normal physical feature for some people, they can also be caused by temporary swelling or underlying medical conditions such as heart, lung, vascular, kidney, or liver problems. Treatment for cankles depends on the underlying cause, and may include home measures like elevating feet and exercising legs, as well as medications or compression stockings prescribed by a healthcare provider.

Fidgeting, changing positions, and adding "movement snacks" like walking, yoga, or squats can help keep the lymphatic system flowing and reduce the chance or severity of cankles. Prioritizing movement is key, whether sitting or standing, to avoid extended stagnation and swelling.

Swelling in the legs, ankles, or feet could be a warning sign of congestive heart failure, a long-term condition where the heart can't pump blood well enough for a normal supply. This happens when one or both of the heart's lower chambers stop pumping blood properly, causing blood flow to slow and back up in the veins in the legs, ankles, and feet, leading to edema. Early signs of peripheral edema include feeling full or heavy legs, swollen feet and lower legs, tight and uncomfortable socks, and leaving a dent when pressing the swollen skin. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
