Go to the doctor's office to see if it's a fracture. Then, stay home and relax. Don't walk on ot too much. You may increase the damage or the pain.

What to do if you have a sprained ankle hurting even after two months?

If the pain is gradually diminishing over time, don't worry - it will heal. A lot of it depends on your age. When I was 18, I sprained my ankle three times in that one year. It took no longer than two weeks to heal each time. When I was 50, I badly sprained my ankle again. It took five months before the pain was completely gone. If you are a young person, and it still hurts after two months, talk to a doctor. If you are past forty - give it time.
