hello, first of all nothing to worry regarding your complaint and its a minor issue too. dont feel depressed regarding this. if im your treating doctor i would diagnose it as a ankle sprain and can be treated with bed rest for max of three to four days with using following medications which includes analgesics and serratiopeptidase combination. also ankle crepe bandage 6 inch size is mandatory for you to tie to make the swelling to subside and decrease the pain. though it aches but there is no such thing that progression of damage. ok nothing to worry. take car
if you have any quiries you are always welcome to ask.
