What Causes Dry Spot On The Ankle Bone?

Hi, I have had an very dry spot on my ankle bone for quite some time now, possibly over a year or longer. Last night untried soaking it and today it's warm to the touch and it looks like it may be a little swollen. I don't know if it's because I soaked it in a solution or if it's been rubbing on my sneakers. Should I be concerned?
