Apply ice for 20mts ,twice a day,for 2 days & apply ankle support,dont massage it/ apply oinment like moov .
It will be ok,but,if even a small amount of the pain is still their, consult a manual physiotherapist,who with squeeze technique can cure you,instantly

You need an ankle X ray asap to rule out any possibility of hair line fracture, if there's no fracture start physiotherapy treatment with advanced physiotherapy and rest , elevate your leg and ice packs application thrice daily and tie crepe bandage only while walking
