A doctor has provided 1 answer

Old injuries that show up after years can be for any reason. That is what makes it very difficult to assess and diagnose. Any displacement at all intra-articular can cause chronic arthritis later on in years. This will be part of my differential diagnosis. I would consider A teaching institution for help if available. The ankle joint may require to be scoped for a better assessment.
