A member asked:

I have a sharp stabbing pain in my right ankle when the weather gets cold. could well have broken it about 5 years ago when i fell off a ladder?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get it checked out: After a bad sprain or fracture of the ankle, the joint can deteriorate and lead to traumatic arthritis. Seeing a podiatrist or orthopedist can diagnose this and other problems. X-rays of the ankle help make the diagnosis.
