See podiatrist: Your cracked talus has probably not healed. See a podiatrist for evaluation.

Ankle pain: Consider possible hardware pain from screws or due to the trauma possible delay in bone healing. Also there could be an infection, arthritis, hypertension, etc). Any of those reasons, you should see your surgeon and get a plan of action. I hope that helps!
