Should socks be this tight?

My socks are so tight,that they itch,and they leave deep indentations in my ankles. I've bought three different kinds and they all do this. My ankles are of average size. I find myself pulling on them (the socks). They're uncomfortable, and the indentations they leave look quite stupid. Is this normal?

  • Naw, reminds me of my days as a growing kid. If you're a woman, maybe get men's socks.

    First off make sure the socks are the right size. If they are then it is caused by swelling of the lower leg. Most likely due to fluid build up or just standing or sitting too long. Drinking more water will allow your body to try not to reserve fluids thus making the swelling go down and moving your legs every so often might also help. If that doesn't work then you may want to go see a doctor to make sure it isn't caused by high blood pressure or edema.
