What would cause random outside ankle pain with no recent injury? i have a history of several ankle sprains. ankle also feels stiff & a little swollen

Sick Anl;e.: A history of several ankle sprains can definitely be part of, if not, the total reason for your problem. The successive injuries have probably destabilized the soft tissue supporting the ankle. The swelling and stiffness help to hold the unstable in check. You will need to have the ankle evaluated. Specific treatment can then be established to help with your problem.
