I was jumping 2 days ago and fell on the side of my ankle. I can walk on it, it's not swollen but it hurts when i try to move my ankle side to side and back and forth. Also if i touch it it hurts. Please help what should I do.

P.S I already did ice it hasn't helped.

I would recommend seeing your doctor for an evaluation. This is the best thing to do if you are still having pain 2 or 3 days after injury and things are not getting better.

They can take an X-ray to make sure nothing is broken, and give you exercises or recommendations on what to do next.
