Ankle injury: Given the fact u have persistent ankle pain and swelling one year post injury lets us know that some structure is disrupted, you need to be evaluated!

Have it evaluated.: Swelling may last a long time following a foot or ankle injury. An x-ray can show if there is an underlying fracture. You may have a soft tissue injury if it is just a sprain and may have damaged the muscle, tendon, or ligaments in the area. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.
