What Causes Severe And Persistent Pain In Ankles?

Hi, My ankle has been hurting for about 3 years. Up until now, I though it was "growing pains" but now I believe it is tendonitis. However I have been wearing a support brace, and following RICE (rest, ice compression and elevation) for about 2 weeks and I still get frequent and severe pain when walking on the hurt ankle. Would it be beneficial for me to get crutches?
