Difene 75 Mg And An External Ibuprofen Gel

Hi, I have a badly sprained ankle, and after 2 days my doctor has prescribed a course of Difene to take down the swelling & help with the pain.
I know I can't take ibuprofen tablets (like Nurofen), but can I still use a ibuprofen 5% w/w gel overnight?
Thanks
Charlotte
