+1 on the PT.
Hopefully you haven't done any damage by overusing it since the injury- you've been keeping it compressed and rested yes?
My right ankle is held together with Scotch tape, pretty much. I don't even remember how many times I've sprained it. But I usually figure 3 weeks before I attempt any type of impact/toeing-off/potentially twisting activities, then a slow strengthening program.

I had a sprain last year and went to a podiatrist I'd already been seeing. She got me a nylon boot type of thing to stabilize the area while I rode and had me do alternating epson salt hot and cold water soaks. My chiropractor was helpful too. There are some nifty foot and toe adjustments that help.
