I feel like something in my ankle keeps poping in and out. every time i turn it. why is this happening?

Hmmmm: Could be ligament injury and instability, or could be a loose body on he joint, or could be unstable tendons snapping over the edge of the bone. If not getting better it is best to get it checked by an orthopedic doctor
