Yeah. There are arteries and veins all through your body. If you look at your feet, you can see a big artery that crosses the top of your instep. That sort of has to be connected to something above it, that would go through the ankle. (logic, here?)
Look at your ankle, you'll be able to see it. There's one that crosses over the anklebone and one that goes across the inside, too.
no ****
Arteries carry blood from the heart to all parts of the body including the ankles and feet. There are three main arteries that pass through the ankle. The Anterior Tibial Artery, Peroneal Artery, and the Posterior Tibial Artery. Veins return blood to the heart. The main veins passing through the ankle are the Anterior Tibial Vein and the Posterior Tibial Vein.

how do you think blood gets to your feet? Of course there are major vessels in the ankle.
