Hi there. Thanks for your question.
Rest, Analgesics, Ice and bandage application can help relieve the pain and swelling associated with your ankle injury.48 hours after injury if you have pain while standing or walking it needs further evaluation and to be seen by a physician in person.
Hope this helps.
All the best. Regards.
