Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It is possible that the trauma induced arthritis in the joint and that may be causing your symptoms. You may watch and wait, if the tremor worsens, or other muscles exhibit fasciculations, it would be prudent to see a neurologist. Wish you good health!
