My ankles hurt from soccer?

Question

Both of my ankles hurt to walk since the middle of last week from soccer. Also the top of my right foot hurts too. They only hurt when i walk and for a few minutes after walking and they especially hurt when i go down stairs :[. Also if i lean on my ankles a certain way they'll just give out.

Would it just be pulled muscles since i've never worked out this much? Or could it be more than muscles?

Please help!

Answer 1

Get some ankle braces and wear them when you train.

Take an anti-inflammatory (non-aspirin) and go slowly next time. Warm your ankles before hitting the field, you will slowly get used to it.

Ah! When you get your soccer shoes, have someone at the store advice you on what type of shoes/cleats are good for you.
