Hi when I was a kid I used to sit on my feet and as result it led it to fluid build up on a spot near the ankle. They said I would have to have a needle inserted to drain it and get the fluid out but i never did it i was scared of needles. does it look like there's fluid build up there now? What could i do to make there area near the ankle look better it looks terrible?
