Subject: Ankle bulge "pucker"? below and front of ATFL


I have sprained my ankles many times in my life due to athletic
naivete. However, I noticed that I have a huge bulge below and front of
my ATFL in both my ankles. Is this a sign of torn ligaments or even
torn ATFLs?

http://ankleinstability.com/_wsn/page2.html - it seems like I have a
positive "pucker sign". What does this mean? Thanks.

Addendum: Under the bump, it feels like there is a huge muscle
underneath. It is neither bony or filled with liquid.
