Could Intense Pain In Shin Be A Sign Of Something Serious?

I cut my shin 2 years ago in a motorcycle accident. It healed fine with no lasting side effects. 3 days ago I bumped into something. The next morning I began experiencing pain which now seems to be traveling down towards my ankle. Could this be something serious

Hi
the last episode of injury does not leads to present one as present injury is recent which is causing pain due to contusion and congestion.
I will advise you to consult local physician and orthopaeditian and take their advise, if necessary they will do X ray of the part and give treatment.
I hope you understood, take care and get well soon.
