Need to see ortho: If you had twisted three times in a wk , you might have caused damage to your ankle joint , ligaments and even fracture, get it evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon , for examination and possible x ray, , then will decide.

Yes: Any trauma should concern you. The fact that you had 3 injury events should raise your concern. I would see your doctor as soon as you can. In the mean time stay off the foot and ice the area. Protect it from further injury.
