Probable second : degree sprain; however, x-ray needed to rule out chip fracture.

Traumatic Arthritis: After and injury such as yours, the intra-articular pressure may be unbalanced and be causing inflammation of the joint. This may be from loose ligaments or imbalance of muscle strength. Restrengthening the muscles surrounding the ankle and regaining proprioception to the area is important. When it is inflamed, rest it. This may be a chronic condition.
