ankle problem

my daughter cut herself shaving in her outside right ankle area.
soon after, she began having problems running with regard to pain in her ankle that seemed to be generating from the ankle cut.
the pain went away after a couple of weeks.
unfornately, the pain has resurfaced.
i don’t see any swelling.
i do, however, still the the nick on her ankle, which she feels the pain comes from that area.
is it possible she nicked a tendon?
any other thoughts (or treatment) suggested?

    I could not say, but she might want to have this evaluated by a podiatrist or orthopedist. A Ultrasound or MRI might be helpful.
