Answers:
It could be a strain or a fracture!.
I'm assuming you haven't taken time off from cheer leading to allow your ankle to rest!.
If you haven't gone in for X-Rays, I hope you do soon just to rule out if it is a fracture of some sort, that happened when you landed!.
If it does end up being a strain, you need to at least take some time off and rest your ankle and don't put much strain on it!.
With continuous use, you're not allowing it to heal and in the long run whatever it may be, you may prolong the healing process!.
Wish you well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's a definate sprane or partial fracture
Get an x ray and stay off it for about2 weeks!.
Also ice it and elevate itWww@Answer-Health@Com
