Ankle injury what should i do now?

Ok, so here's the whole story. In late February I left varsity softball practice early to go to a basketball tryout. My coach didn't questian why I left, she just umed that I had a doctors appointment or something. So the coach sent 3 people at a time after the ball (he would throw it randomly) so of course when I was up he bounced it real high. I knew I could get it which I did but on the way down I fell on it sideways and landed completely on that ankle. I fell on the floor (still holding the ball) and it was BURNING!!!! I truer to p the ball but pretty much threw it... :/ I couldn't get up and I felt like a retard! I finally got up and tried to walk back over to the wall and somehow made it there. It was burning like crazy and I couldn't move it at all. Finally I got my dads attention and called him over to where I was and so I walked back with him and sat where he was and put my foot up. My dad was like "i can wrap it for u and then you can go back out" I was like dad I can't even move it... So I just sat there the rest of the time... :( ..... I went home and my parents made me go out and get an ankle brace. So I did but I had to use crutches when I went. I got a brace and went back home and iced my ankle. Then I had to text my softball coach and I told her that I hurt it and that I couldn't really run (total understatement) so then I went to softball practice (my mom told me to bring the crutches but I refused) so I hobbled to practice and explained to my coach what happened and she was so ticked off!!! Anyway after 3 days I continued playing sports (in discomfort and a little pain) and I couldn't sit pretzel styled for like two months... Anyway now it pops when I make circles with it and I still don't have the same motion I did before but the popping is really wierd and I can see it popping!!! The swelling was insane! I also had a LOT of SHARP pain when I touched anywhere above the rounded part of the outside of my ankle what should I do now?????
