Suggest Treatment For Swollen Ankles

Take some analgesic and go next morning
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,welcome to HCM
Most probably she might have got some ligament tear.
This can be managed with analgesics and local rest for a few days.Sometimes,depending on the condition,this may also need splinting of the joint for a few days.
Anyhow,we have to rule out any minor bone injury also with the help of an x ray.Your doctor will guide you in this.This not an emergency situation.Just take some analgesics like ibuprofen or mefanamic acid (tylenol is unlikely to help such pain),keep the limb in an elevated position,and continue ice pack application.You can see your doctor next morning.Try to immobilize the joint as far as possible.
Hope I have answered your query.
Wishing for a faster cure.
Thank you.
