Hi...It might be an ankle sprain.But to know the severity and the degree of sprain and also which ligaments are affected..you will have to consult a physio as soon as possible
Next Steps
for now you need to ice the ankle which will help in reducing the swelling.Also you can buy an ankle binder from the pharmacy and provide some support to your ankle.
Health Tips
kindly visit a physio asap
