Spanish allows for null subjects, and Spanish language tends not to be overly specific when the meaning of a sentence is obvious, so having the ankle as the implied subject for the second verb seems fine to me.

“se le hinchó” but "se hinchó " alone sounds correct too, since it’s obvious that it’s about the ankle
