Hello,
It could be due to sprain or ankle contusion. As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedic and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
