I popped my ankle a lot now it is hurting. what do you suggest?

Ankle first aid: As with any sprain, rest, ice, compression and elevation usually helps. Don't force yourself to participate in activities if it is hurting. Give it time to heal. And ace wrap or simple ankle brace gives needed support. Each day should bring more relief. If you happen to have an injury that is not improving with these measures then a visit to your doctor is indicated. Good luck.

Heard a snapping/popping noise at the back of the heel (near the achilles tendon), felt sudden pain but it went away immediately but feels sore now. No problem moving the ankle, no swelling or redness, the area is fine to touch as well, but worried?
