Rotate your ankle and massage it for 5 mins before/after going to the gym. Get blood flowing in it. After, use an elliptical machine/stationary bike if impact from running on treadmill is too uncomfortable.
You could have poor ankle range of motion. Check out Kelly Starrett and Donnie Thompson's YouTube channels. Pay some attention to your Achilles' tendons as well.

2.why are you running?

Could look for a torrent of this. Try the stretches in this pic 15-30 seconds each see if they help at all with a quick fix.

With the middle stretch do it with your shoes off, keep your feet pointed as well as together, and only lift up as much as you can.
Hello guys, I'm looking for a pic that I found around here a long time ago. It was a running program and mixed it up with sprints/walks and runs. I think it was supposed to make you run 5k in a month? (or 3 months?). If anyone has it it would be great.

Couch to 5k

1. Get some proper shoes, (Puma Narita v2s are decent and not too pricey).
2. Tech check. look at your form (suggested already), your injury suggests you're heel striking which is a big no no (I learned this the hard way).
Bonus: When you change up your technique, it will feel great for a bit, then your calves will tire, and your arches will begin to ache, push yourself, but not too hard. You'll need to build up calf strength (the arch pain will go too). Rinse and repeat and running will become the easiest, most comfortable thing in the world.

I think I heel strike too, as I have bruising on my right heel. How do I change my form? Heel strike just feels natural to me
Warm up. Warm down.
Stretch. Calf Raises.
