Hi, It might be possible that you have had a mild ligament strain due to demands of the sport. As you are not a professional, so this has happened. Use a crepe bandage, keep it in elevation during sitting sleeping. Avoid playing for 1-2 weeks. You can use ice packs around ankle for 2 min per 3 hrs.
