Question
About 6 weeks ago I was in a car accident and broke 2 toes on my right foot and injured my right knee.

Ever since I've been putting more weight on my left foot to compensate for my right. Now I'm getting a sudden sharp stabbing pain on inside of my left foot right under the ankle bone. It's in the same spot every time. I'm curious as to what this could be. Thank you.  

Answer
Like you mentioned, it is likely a compensatory pain.  Try some over the counter anti-inflammatory medication to help with the pain.  That will usually take care of it.

All the best,
Andrew Schneider, DPM
