Hello, Gary. I'm not a medical professional, just a parent of a kid with diabetes. There are many reasons for swelling of ankles, but I've not heard of an insulin reaction causing it.

hello...i am a type 1 diabetic for 16 yrs now. my left ankle tends to swell up on me. they it has to due to the circulation in your legs. do you have neuropathy? i have neuropathy in my legs and feet and the doctors said that is why my ankle swells up at times, but you can't do anything about it really because it is a complication to diabetes.
