You can experience ankle pain for various reasons. Oftentimes, it is due to a repetitive ankle sprain injury.
You would have to be examined, could be your ankle your hip etc....
There are many causes for ankle pain. But at your age, if there was no trauma to the ankle such as a strain/sprain, there may be an issue with the mortice joint (the joint that connects the foot to the leg) or one of the tendons. I would recommend having it checked by a specialist such as a Chiropractor, Orthopedist, or Podiatrist.
This could be from an old sprain, or overuse. As we get older our arches also tend to collapse which puts excess pressure and tension on the ankles.
