Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a twisted ankle. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms. I also suggest using cold compresses. You should maintain the ankle immobilized with a brace to prevent further damage.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
