Having same issue. Wore knee brace for long time yesterday, also while driving for a few hours in car. Now ankle is swollen. I'm thinking it probably cut off circulation to ankle. I'm also thinking it's not a good idea to keep these braces on while sitting for long periods. Someone said they put an ankle bandage On while they slept and it took the swelling away. Will definitely try tonight.
