I'm glad it isn't broken, but tendon damage can take forever to heal and it usually leaves the ankle weaker than before. I am queen of the sprained ankle, being 6'3" in a world deisigned for people nearly a foot shorter than me. That whole center of balance thing gets me every time. You have my sympathies. Ice it if it swells, but actually mild warmth is good for the tendons (think bathwater, not hot tub), if it isn't swelling and doesn't feel inflamed. Feel better!
