Suggest Treatment For Level 4 Ankle Sprain

hello i just had a question, i had a level 4 ankle sprain and i was told that i shredded all my ligaments on my ankle which happend back in 2008 while i was in basic trainnig for the army. now im still having issues with it as far as putting to much weight on it or running sometimes it swells up but the worst is while im doing alot of running which i have stoped cause i cant run anymore. also when i do run i get really bad shin splints. a little on what they did for me while i was in the army was that i was on crutches for maybe a month and some physical therapy and now i still have issues with it as far as physical actvities i also dont have full range of motion on it eaither. and now im going to the VA to try and see what they can do for me and all i have gotten was a bone scan which was negative and a xray which was also negative i guess my question would be what would you recommend.
