Ankle Fat Pads
Description
Ankle fat pads, commonly referred to as "cankles" (a blend of "calf" and "ankles"), describe a condition where the lower leg lacks definition between the calf and ankle, resulting in a smooth, shapeless transition. Also known as "ankle swelling," "ankle fat," "swollen ankles," or "fat ankles," cankles can be caused by genetics, increased body weight, fluid retention, or underlying medical issues like lipedema or edema. For most people, cankles are primarily a cosmetic concern, but sudden or severe swelling could signal a more serious health problem. While exercise and lifestyle changes can help, stubborn fat around the ankles is often resistant to traditional methods, leading many to explore cosmetic solutions such as liposuction or body contouring. If you are seeking ways to slim your ankles and improve leg definition, understanding the causes and treatment options for ankle fat pads or cankles can empower you to make the right decision for your needs.
