Should my sprained ankle still be hurting?

I sprained my ankle about 6 weeks ago. Despite taking Naproxen for pain and swelling and wearing an ankle brace, my ankle is still swollen, stiff and painful. I'm not able to flex my foot down as far as my other foot. Does anyone know if this is normal? Will I ever have full range of motion again?
