Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of severe pain in the ankle i would suggest you to follow the following precautions,
firstly try to put 6 inch crepe bandage for ankle which subsides your swelling and restricts major movement which will be sufficient for your ankle ligaments to get healed if present. use analgesica with antacids combinations that will be sufficient.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
