Ankle pain can be due to twisting of the ankle or due to many other causes like Rheumatoid Arthritis and Gout.
It is difficult to answer your question without knowing where exactly is her pain.
Next Steps
Please send a photo of her ankle and point out the exact area of pain with one finger. Also, do let me know if she has had a sprain, if she has fever or if she has diabetes/asthma/thyroid problems.
