Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to muscle sprain.
For that you can take tablet acetaminophen. Apply diclofenac gel or ointment locally. Heating pads will also help.
Avoid strenuous exercises. Use support while walking. Use ankle brace.
In case of not getting relief you may require MRI ankle after orthopedician consultation
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
