About 3 weeks ago I woke up with an aching pain in my ankle... I thought i may have sprung it but a little advil cleared it up. Then 1 week later it happened again on the same ankle... Now today my other ankle has the same type of pain... At some points it truely hurts... I'm 23 by the way and have no time to go to the doctor that's why I ask you!

I have always worn flip flops or tennis shoes... I've always had problems with my ankles just not to this extent.

Do you see a true concern for me to see the doctor?

It's hard to identify a specific cause with the general information you've given.
The pattern of injury might suggest a postural habit, stress, or something that you are doing physically at work or during an activity. If you are very active, then neglecting the necesary stretches, or allowing too little recovery time between activity sessions, could result in damage of the sort you describe.
Some shoes can alter the way you habitually use your feet, and the damage this can cause may not show up for months.
If you have altered your diet, or 'dieted' severely enough to interfere with your muscle tone, then it would be normal for an injury caused by these changes to affect one limb before the other. A deficiency disease might allow your bones or connective tissue to become vulnerable; damage would be more quickly suffered in the leg you habitually put more weight on. The same would happen if the muscles supporting your ankles have been weakened by starvation ('calorie control').
Having no time to go to the doctor's is an indication that you might simply be overworking the joint. In any case, you need to prioritise differently. You will get more done by remaining healthy, than you will by generating injuries that you have no time to recover from. See a doctor, or better still in this instance, a physiotherapist.
Yes, you need some sort of medical advice. Your ankles have given you THREE CLEAR WARNINGS that something is wrong. If you seek medical help while you are still able to use the joints, you might be able to avoid spending some time on crutches or in a chair.

i'm an atheist. None the fewer, i do no longer think of iceman proved 'our factor'. there are various clarification why a god does no longer have stored the sufferer for the duration of this occasion. listed under are a number of them. a) He did no longer have self assurance interior the impressive god. to illustrate, he may well be a Baptist, yet while there have been rather a god that for the duration of good shape the Greek Orthodox version of Christianity the Baptist won't have been stored. b) If god exists, he won't intrude with mortals' lives. c) Many theists have self assurance that while they die, they are going to circulate to heaven. What may well be the factor of saving the guy from a corrupt international while he is going to be transported to paradise while he dies?

If you can't see a doctor, try a new pair of shoes. The shoes you wear don't have any arch support and that's important. It could be just what you need. Good Luck!

See a doctor that's what they are for, most health care facilities have some type of after hour arrangements.

If it is a deep burning pain it might be due to excessive wear and tear on your ligaments and tendons. Try wearing trainers when you can, but I'd recommend a podiatrist.

MAKE TIME TO SEE YOUR GP IF IT IS A LONG TERM PROBLEM. YOU MIGHT HAVE A SERIOUS CONDITION THAT REQUIRES MEDICAL INTERVENTION. Or ask a chemist pharmacist, they often have a private room .
