R.I.C.E: Rest, ice, compression, and elevation are appropriate treatments for an ankle sprain. I don't know the mechanism of injury or any other details about your injury, but it is possible you have a fracture. One cannot tell just by looking at the ankle. I suggest you have it examined and see if the clinician recommends and xray to check for a fracture.
