Could be serious: When you broke the leg the twisting force could have damaged your knee as well. If that is something that does not get better by itself after a few days of resting the knee it would be a good idea to have it looked at (probably best to see the dame doctor that treated the fracture).

Knee pain: Definitely not normal. Might be cartilage or ligament injury. Could be a fracture which happened when you had the first fracture . Could be because of overuse of the right leg because of left dude injury. See your doctor.
