Painful ankle: Possibly, but it would be best if you took it easy over the next couple of days. You can use price therapy. If the pain is still the same after 10-14 days you should see a doctor and get some xrays.

Ankle: It is very difficult to determine if its a high ankle sprain. First get x-ray and if not conclusive get mri. That will determine treatment protocol.
