Hi,
As per my surgical experience, the appearance or painful feeling of ankle relates with weight changes of the body and deposition of extra adipose tissue over the certain parts of the body.
However, other soft tissue lesion possibilities as bursa cyst or else also has to be ruled out via clinical examination herewith.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
