Ankle sprain - no acute event

Symptoms of ankle sprain. Gradual onset (over 2 runs). Definitely no actute twist event. Any experience with chronic onset, why, and tests I might do to find out if it is a sprain or something else?

What exactly are the symptoms? Swelling? Bruising? Painful when you touch it? Can't put weight on it? Can you hop on it? Previous history of ankle sprains?
Things to consider: stress fracture in lower fibula; tendinitis; osteoarthritis.

Swelling, no history of sprains, tender in points but over regions, primarily medial. In fact diagnosed today as posterior tibial tendonitis. Any tips? Thanks for the reply.
