A member asked:
What should i do for small calves and ankles?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Work out: You can increase your calf size by increasing workouts and increasing your diet to reflect activity. Ankles do not have any muscle around it, much like elbows and the wrist, so there is nothing outside of surgery to increase the size of an ankle.
