Sounds like a bad boot and may have some debri in it. Pull the axle, remove the boot, clean it out really good, and inspect the joint for damage. Hopefully you are lucky and it just needs to be cleaned/repacked with grease.

you have a hole in the cv boot and got water/mud in there and now the cv joint is gone bad and the whole thing needs replacing.
