Ankle still swollen over a month after injury

I tripped and fell about a month ago. My right ankle was really swollen the next day and is still swollen but to a lesser degree. What should I do about this? I can walk on it ok but feels a bit painful when I’m sitting down.

thanks

Ice pack every night on elevated leg. Ibruprofen three times a day . Try to rotate gently whilst elevated ( so it doesn’t stiffen)
it takes time….
