Only a Dr. can tell for sure, but it needs to be checked out. The injury may not be a severe as the first time BUT after an initial injury the site will Always be more susceptible than before the first injury. You'll probably need an MRI.

you may want to still have it checked out
sprains are not really simple, ive seen a number of althletes be out a few games because they waited until next practice to see us about it rather than call
esp if youve had surgery. are you going thru rehab? that sprain could really set you back
