Ankle pain can be due to various causes like:

You can try:
- Rest your ankle by not walking on it. Limit weight bearing.
- Ice it to keep down the swelling.
- Compression can help control swelling as well as immobilize and support your injury.
- Elevate the foot by reclining and propping it up above the waist or heart as needed.
- Wear shoes that fit well and provide ample ankle support.
- Avoid wearing high-heeled shoes.
- Stretch your ankles and legs before exercising.

- Take tab. dolo 650 or brufen after food when your pain is unbearable.

I hope this answered your query.
