Have you been to a doctor about this? Diuretics don't always help the water retention, depending upon where it is located and what is causing it. Elevate your ankle throughout the day as that can help.

I have a swollen left ankle and already take water tablets so they don't always help.

Both of mine do this. Water tablets didn't help. Keep them up as much as you can and exercise - that helps boost your circulation.
