Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having over exertion pain in and around your ankle may be stress fracture. Its treatment is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen. Stop gym for few weeks. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you a good health. Take care.
