Get an Xray done for the ankle and knee to rule out fracture firstly. Rest it out and ice application.
Next Steps
See a orthopedist or Musculoskeletal or sports physiotherapist. Xray Ankle Dorsal and Lateral view and Xray Knee Ap and Lateral view
Health Tips
Do not massage over the swelling or injured areas.
