Toe pain : If it's painful to walk on you need an x-ray to rule out a fracture

I hit a foul ball off of my ankle about a week ago. I am still able to walk and run and there is no swelling or bruising but my ankle feels uncomfortable to touch and I get occasional pain in the side of my foot. Could this just be a sprain?
