How to get rid of fat pads on the ankles?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I'm not sure: What you mean by fat pad of ankle....the heels sometimes have herniated fat, the ankle sometimes have fat by the ankles, some people refer to this as "cankles" this could be left alone if not painful. If either of the two are painful, it can be taken care of surgically..
