Minor Pain In Lower Part Of Tibia. History Of Having Knee Revision, Putting A Post In Tibia. Connection?

I had a knee revision three months ago -- I am experiencing some new, minor pain in my tibia and wondering if it could be related to the post put in the tibia to keep the revision in place. I did not experience this discomfort at the time of surgery, but wondering if it may be related. It appears to be a little lower than the post. Thank you.

is there any history of even trivial trauma on the knee?#
if yes kindly see a doc immediately.
hot fomentation should help.
a physical examination is a must for the same.
