Apply ice /heat twice a day for 3 days for 15 mins each, wear splint and give it a rest, do not pressurize it, if it gets pressure there will not be any improvement.
Visit nearby physiotherapy clinic and take ultrasound therapy for 10 days, this will reduce swelling and removes pain.

Usually heart / kidney / lymph drainage problems tend to be more generalized in one or both legs. It would be in the foot, ankle and leg regions and just not around the ankle. If you have had any history of trauma and the swelling had occurred a...more

Cold compresses can help reduce swelling in the area. Cooling also helps to numb sharp pain. Apply an ice pack for up to 20 minutes, up to five times a day. Use a frozen gel pack, ice cubes in a plastic bag, or a bag of frozen peas. Wrap the cold pack in a soft towel. Do not apply a cold pack directly to skin.
Heat therapy
heat helps to relax tense muscles and soothe a stiff area. It can help with muscle pain and bonny pain. Use a heated gel pack, heating pad or a hot water bottle.

Without seeing the reports or radiological investigation we cannot suggest much.
But before going for replacement, you should try everything.
