Answer 1

get it checked out by the doctorr!!!!

even if u think its just a sprain still go to the doctor!

lol i thought i had just a sprained wrist

but i went to the docs and its fractured.

so just to be safe go to the docs or pediatrition

Answer 2

i think you sprained your ankle..

R.I.C.E.

rest -stay off it for awhile. you could make it worse

ice -the area no more than 10-15 minutes for a few hours. 10 minutes one hour, 10 minutes the next .. etc.

compression -or gently massage

elevation -prop your foot up on some pillows as your watch tv or something. make sure your foot is above heart level. this lets less blood flow down towards your foot.

tell your coach..
