Hi! I would always recommend an evaluation for the source of the ankle pain. In general, stretching exercises and use of a TheraBand can be helpful exercises.
What is the cause of your ankle pain?
It it is fracture, you might want to hold still and consult your primary care doctor or orthopedic specialist. Certain exercises can aggravate the problem. I need to know the cause of your ankle pain first.

Before starting an exercise regimen, you need to determine the cause of the pain by seeing a podiatrist or orthopedist. A physical therapist is your best source for exercises and modalities to help relieve pain and strengthen those structures around the ankle.
Ankle pain can have several causes, some that stretching can help with and some that may aggravate the pain. Before an exercise program, I recommend you see a foot and ankle specialist (podiatrist) for evaluation, diagnosis and treatment options.
That depends on what is causing the pain. Sometimes you might worsen a condition by being too active. Sometimes activity does not affect the pathology. But without a definitive diagnosis of what is causing your pain, you should refrain from exercise and you should see a specialist
