Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that there can be ligament or soft tissue injury of the ankle which has caused these symptoms. I would suggest you to apply some splints and do some rest.
You can also apply hot water fomentation and volini gel local application. I hope these steps will be helpful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
I find this answer helpful
