I can't get on my tip toes because there's a pain in my ankle. i can't point my foot outwards because the pain is in the back of my foot. it's swollen?

Examination.: There are a lot of structures that pass around, over, through and under the ankle and back of the foot. It is best to have your foot and ankle examined to isolate the painful areas and get a meaningful understanding on your problems.
