There are so many questions that it is impossible to even begin to answer your question. We would need to know your age,what kinds of activities you do, shoes you wear, family history of these sorts of things,what you eat/drink, your weight, does it come and go or when does it swell, what medications are you on, do you drink,smoke, is there pain, ...the questions are endless. If this condition doesn't go away then seek a second opinion. good luck
