Thankyou , I haven't seen anyone about it because I thought it would heal .I sprained it a few times and twice I had to use cruches and a bandage due to pain when I put pressure on it .

You could having anything from a fracture, cartilage tear, ruptured tendon, or even nerve injury. I suggest seeing an Orthopedist.

Not necessarily -- it depends on how you treated it.  Sprains are notorious for either not healing even when they feel better and then causing other injuries later because the area is weakened.  Did you see anyone to strengthen the area?
