Ideally it should have fixed with IMIL nail before , but your surgeon have done best possible based on your condition at the time of injury . Right now It’s not uniting as it should be so better to go with revision surgery earliest or you should be ready to wait till it unites which may take 4-6 months .

Well done job. Fracture seems to be uniting, with poor callus formation. You should be up & about with the help of a pair of crutches.
