At least 2 possibil-: Ities: 1: unlikely that you have developed arthritis, so soon, as it usually takes about 10 years, but i believe it can occur if the fracture wasn't anatomically reduced ; fixed, or if the fracture was really a bad one. 2: most likely sounds like a referred pain from your back with nerves to the leg affected. See your orthopod to have it diagnosed. Good luck.
