Yes, it can be normal for an ankle to remain swollen for up to two weeks after an injury, depending on the severity. Swelling is part of the body's natural healing process, but if it persists or is accompanied by severe pain, redness, or difficulty moving the ankle, it's advisable to seek medical attention. Keeping the ankle elevated, applying ice, and resting can help reduce swelling. If concerns remain, consulting a healthcare professional is recommended.
