Broken shoulder
A plate was inserted to repair my dads broken shoulder from a car accident. But after the first few physio therapy sessions it shifted from its primary position(maybe because of a wrong exercise). Though it's not troubling or restricting his movement should we be getting it removed?

Consult your consultant orthopaedician immediately. The decision to remove any plate fixation is the sole responsibility of your consultant orthopaedician who did operation before.
