ANKLE PAIN: Ankle sprains are part of a spectrum that involve injury to parts of the ligaments , tendons and bone. It is not unusual to still have pain in the area of trauma. The critical indicator is whether or not the severity of pain and swelling are decreasing . If so it is on Te mend. You still need to avoid impact activities until all pain is resolved
