Sadly, if your ankle still isn't better after six months, not only is something wrong but you've definitely been needing to go to the doctor to fix it. And if the doctors can't tell you what's wrong, they need to go back to school.

The fact of the matter is you probably tore up your tendon in the ankle. If you gave more information about how you injured it (what is "the" injury? That's kind of important), then I could help you more, but the most I can say right now is that you should go to a podiatrist (foot doctor) and have it looked at, and then evaluate what treatment is necessary.
