Ankle sprain: Depends on location. If the pain is on the sides of the ankle, it could be from a sprain. If the pain is on the bottom of your foot, you may have another ailment called plantar fasciitis. If its inside ankle, you may have a defect in your ankle bone. Ask your physician for an evaluation, if pain gets worse or find one in your network that specializes in ankle sprains.

Have it evaluated.: Pain may last a long time following a foot or ankle injury. An x-ray can show if there is an underlying fracture. You may have a soft tissue injury if it is just a sprain and may have damaged the muscle, tendon, or ligaments in the area. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.
