This seems to be delayed union of your fracture.
Next Steps
Healing of any fracture depends on many factors...which includes smoking and drinking habits of the patient. So if u smoke or chew tobacco, please stop that. Also, start vitamin d3 and calcium supplements. I will not be able to comment on how much time the fracture will take to heal unless i see the xrays...so please post the xrays...
