2 months ago i sprained my ankle and everything was healing up nicely, but then a week ago it started hurting again and now i can't bear weight on it?

Needs more time: you must let things heal fully. Stick to flat shoes, avoid sports and take it easy. If things do get better soon, speak to your doc about this.
