Experiencing Ankle Pain , What Are The Possible Treatments ?

Hi I'm a 13 year old cheerleader and my right ankle keeps having sharppains and I don't know why.
I'm a back spot so I don't put a lot of pressure on it but I sometimes find my ankle to give out through out the day or practice. I can walk on it sometimes but its not swollen do you know what's going on?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi , If you are a cheerleader and thirteen only , there is a chance of stress. It is better to get the X-ray of the area which has pain. If x-ray is normal, this can be dur to sprain. You need minimum of 3 weeks rest.
