See Orthopedist: Simple ans: get x-rayed at any facility. Mild pain and no loss of activity usually means mild problem. Different people have different pain tolerances. So if limping or can't do some sport, then likely serious. Slowly worsening pain over months is a serious problem. Rule: moderate joint pain 10 days after an injury needs new xray, 20 days needs orthopedist! some docs do not know this rule!

Arthritis : It's very common to get arthritis after a major ankle fracture . You also may have developed an ocd if pain is within the joint.
