The bearings are loose.
Loose bearings are putting excess stress on the axle flange.
I would take the hub off and inspect the bearings. check for evidence of the bearings cutting into the bottom side of the axle tube, and bearing races spun out and loos in the hub. If all looks good, replace the seal, put it back together being careful to preload the bearings and lock the nuts as they are designed to be locked. Be very careful to preload and lock the nuts properly. Be a good time to check the other side too.
Be sure to replace all the axle bolts with the correct bolts and taper sleeves. Once they have been run loose, they have been stressed and distorted. Look the threads in the hub over, if stripped, split, or wallowed loose, they will need to be repaired while it's apart. Be sure the surface of the hub and the mating surface of the axle are flat and not burred, and the tapered holes are not oblonged or split.
