To see bone  union on xray it takes atleast 3 weeks . The surgery is done to just hold fragments together.fracture healing is the body's process . Can only comment on reduction if xray would have been shared

Bone won't unite just  after surgery , fracture will be held with k wire or screw, so share x ray to see bone fragments in position,
