Lumps on ankle

I sprained my right ankle about a month ago.  It just recently 'healed' enough where I can walk on it fully without a wrap or brace.  About a week after spraining my right ankle, my left ankle developed a red, painful lump under my skin.  I didn't think anything of it.  Now, a couple weeks later, I have 4 lumps on my left ankle (about a cm in diameter) that are all painful to the touch and my ankle is now swollen.  I can walk on it just fine.  It only hurts when you touch the specific bumps.  I feel rediculous because I just got the right one healed and now this one is acting up.  Any idea what this is and how to fix them?  Thanks.
