Visit your local: Podiatrist to have it examined. It can be determined whether there is a broken bone. Even if not, there are treatments and ankle supports that can be provided to you to aid in the recovery.

See a podiatrist: Or try r.I.C.E yourself which would be rest, ice, compression (with an ace bandage or ankle brace) and elevation. (typically elevation implies above your hear level.).
