Ankle bracing: If the pain in your ankles is from instability then ankle bracing would be of great benefit. I would recommend an evaluation by a podiatrist.

Have it evaluated.: Pain due to trauma may be due to fracture, sprains, arthritis, muscle, nerve or tendon injuries. Have the foot evaluated so that you may get the appropriate care.
