A member asked:
The top of my foot still swollen 2 weeks after ankle sprain.shooting needle pain when guetting up after elevating it.what could this be?

Enough time.: It sounds as though something else may be involved in addition to an ankle sprain. Two weeks is long enough to wait, especially if there is pain and swelling. You would be best served with a directed evaluation and possibly imaging studies.
