Hi,
There can be two reasons to that:
First there may be a ligamentous injury in the ankle due to which you are experiencing these symptoms
Secondly, many patients complain of chronic pain issues following a calcaneum fracture
For detailed explanation and further work up consult directly
Hope it was helpful to you!!

Instability in the ankle can be a sign of undiagnosed ligament injury around the ankle- which can be confirmed through physical examination and relevant radiological investigations.
Once the cause of your problem is identified, specific therapy can be started.
Next Steps
