Consult a doctor to rule out serious damage. Rest, ice, and avoid jogging. Start gentle stretches (ankle circles, calf stretches) and progress to strengthening (heel raises, resistance bands). Use an ankle brace for support. Gradually resume low-impact activities. Seek help if pain persists or worsens after 2â3 weeks.

Ankle being a body part which has a poor blood supply, ankle injuries can take a long time to heal. Its better to rule out any ligament injury before starting gymming as it may worsen your injury.
Next Steps
Consult with a pain management specialist for proper evaluation and long term relief.
Health Tips
Avoid standing at a place for more than 10 minutes

Your condition needs further evaluation. So I'd recommend you consult any doctor locally or via tele consultation so that your condition can be properly assessed and treated accordinglyFurther evaluation of your condition is recommended for optimal care. Consulting with a doctor, either in person or through a telehealth platform, would be beneficial. This will allow a healthcare professional to assess your specific needs.
