I sprained my right ankle few weeks back and during that time it was swollen and i was in a lot of pain for a couple of days. The pain gradually reduced and all this while i was working and it involved walking around a lot. Although it has been more than a couple of weeks, there is pain in my ankle when i run or i try to flex my ankle.
