I sprained my ankle where it swole to a tennis ball size and it was sore like you were saying for about 2 weeks and didn't feel 100% until about 2 months after. Sucks.
my heart hurt a little bit when I read your post — I twisted my ankle in October 2022 and it still isn't fully recovered I've been to the doctor lots and am in physical therapy rehab because of it MY BIG MISTAKE: Running too soon after hurting it. It was not worth it!!! I gave it a week and then went for a run. As much as possible stay off it and rest until no longer hurting.
