my ankle hurts every time?

i walk long distances. I've always had this problem since i was younger (i'm 17 years old) I have no idea when it started. It doesn't hurt when i'm playing hard core basketball or if i run across the gym a few times. It just hurts when i walk long distance for example walking across town. I think it's weird because it's just that one. what do you think maybe wrong with it. if it helps i think i might walk on it differently than i do with my other foot.Its also not an antagonizing pain just an annoying pain.

    My left ankle used to hurt when I would walk home. That was back in high school. We don't have sidewalks; therefore, I had to walk on the road. I would walk on the left side so that I could see the traffic coming towards me. I guess since its sloped on the left side I was putting more stress on my left ankle so I started to walk on the right side of the road, and my ankle stopped hurting. Hope this helps you!!
