Suggest Treatment For Medial Malleolus Pain

There's pain when anything comes in contact with the top part of my medial malleolus. Hurts especially when wearing boots that press against it. There's a weird sensation that goes down my foot when I walk or touch it. What could this mean? This all started with a pain I noticed while snowboarding. Inside my boot it felt like a rock was pressing against my ankle.
