Tib/fib spiral frac 15 yrs ago @ 22yrs old, with ti rod. still pain at frac site. any suggestions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See ortho specialist: Chronic pain that persists after full healing may be due to nerve damage, scar tissue, or in your situation, a foreign body reaction to the rod. This certainly deserves discussion with your orthopedic surgeon. With careful evaluation, the likely source of pain can be diagnosed. If the rod has a role, consideration might even be given as to whether it is still needed. Good wishes:)
