See a doctor: If you have injured the ankle several times it would be a good thing to see PM&R, or orthopedic doctor so that they can examine you and rule out ankle instability which could be present from a ligament tear. If there is concern for this an MRI would be ordered. If exam seems benign, then physical therapy, ice and nsaid should be initiated to strengthen the ankle and to avoid future reinjuries.
