Pin removed 6 weeks ago fx again last ni
I had a ORF over a year ago, the plate and pins were hurting. We had moved seen a new Ortho. My surgery took 13 min open to close. My body was rejecting the plates. I'm 6 weeks post OP I fell and fracture my ankle again. The ER did know what was going on because they seen the first injury then didn't have an xray with the pins. But they see the old fracture didn't heal which of course it did before they took the pins were removed. What can a ortho do now I have all these holes and plate spots.
