Soaked the foot ice for the first 20 hours, 2 hours before the match I did the contrast soak bath,taped the ankle played a complete match. Note. Hurt like hell after the tape was off....
That was the frost bite, not your ankle.

Doctors are overrated. Just slap some duct tape on it.

What you have going on sounds very similar....

Shin or I guess you can say "high ankle" area.

I had shin pain for a week or so, about three inches above the ankle.
Ignored the shin pain, figured it was just because winter and cold. Was out on a run and after a step I just felt my calf muscle and what seemed like all the tendons surrounding the shin area tightened up, as if trying to protect the fracture.
A dull throbbing ache with a slight limp lasted for a month or so.

The Beast is a good shoe but has what's called a "straight last" bottom. Your foot does not move at all.
I went with a curved or semi-curved stability shoe and now no shin problems.....knock on wood.
