Would see doctor : You may have torn a tendon or suffered a small fracture. See orthopedic surgeon and get this handled. Should give an approach to improve

I sprained my ankle the night of 10/19/19 and my ankle is still very stiff, slightly swollen, and hurts. I haven't been doing the ABC exercises as much as the Doctor recommended, but I am very active at work and walk frequently. Is this normal?
