Place a rolled towel on the ground. Jump over the towel and land on your injured foot. Jump back over the towel on your other foot. Repeat 5 times.
Sit on the floor with your legs straight out. Hold a rolled towel around your foot with both hands. Gradually turn your ankle inward while pulling the towel with the outer hand. Hold for 30 seconds.
