See doctor: With simple sprain of ankle you should feel better with one week of injury.If you still have pain and not improved yet at this time, you need to see doctor for x-ray or even MRI to see any tendon/ligament injury.

See doc: An exam and probably an x-ray is in order to rule out a fracture vs. An ankle sprain ( torn ligaments).
