Ankle sprain with ligament tear

Question

Asked for Female, 27 Years

I had sprained my right ankle, along with ligament tear in the month of February. On a regular basis, there is no pain at present, unless I happen to twist that ankle again. However, the ankle has not regained its earlier flexibility. Do I need physiotherapy? Also, can I start working out, activities like yoga or running?
