Ankle sprain: Sorry about your injury. Depending on severity of the injury, the pain and swelling can last a while especially without proper rest, stability with brace, icing and elevation. Advil (ibuprofen) is an appropriate NSAID option but if the pain is getting worse, please see your physician. You may have a more severe injury and require imaging (x-rays) and further treatment.
