I'm in my high school track team. My right ankle started hurting when I was running a 350 breakdown at track practice like around February 20th. Could this be a sprain? I've been using these patches my mom uses for her back when she has back pains on it. It's gotten a bit better; my ankle doesn't hurt when I walk anymore although I sometimes buckle a bit. However, it slightly hurts when i rotate it right (it hurts VERY very little.) But when I run, there is a more pain, especially when I push off with it. Is this a sprain or is it something more severe?
Also, I've used 10 lb ankle weights ( 5 pounds per leg ) like in January/early February but I stopped using them cause I was lazy. could this be the cause?
And are ankle weights bad for you? =[

[I don't run with the ankle weights, I walk with them during school and take them off before practice.]
