Repost with X rayNeed 2nd opinion physio
Hi , I have met with an accident on 8th may mid Night and had  undergone a surgery to the left foot . 2 fingers broke and as part of the surgery K wires were inserted to support the 2nd and 3rd finger . On Wednesday, June 20th the K wires were removed . The doctor suggested to proceed with the physiotherapy but I want a 2nd opinion on the state of the 2nd finger which still looks broken. I have attached the X ray taken post operation and another x ray taken on 20th June just minutes  prior to the  wires removal . Can you please confirm if we can proceed with the physiotherapy . Sorry for the repost as last time I didn't attach the x rays

Do not.worry even if the fracture line is still visible. Bone unites by 4-6weeks. And you have passed that time.

Just start walking. apply ice packs locally if swelling appears.
