Removal of bone fixing rod from left arm
The rod was fitted 5 years back at NTPC Singrauli Hospital due to fracture in left arm after an accident. I am suffering from pain over entire arm length. I want removal of the rod. Please suggest the remedy.

The pain may not be coming only from the metalwork. There can be other reasons. You need to be assessed to see if removal will help. Do not rush in for removal or metalwork.
Always remember, any surgery has its share of complications.
