Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
hello,
thank you for using healthcare magic .
I read your question and understood your concern.
I would like to see a X ray of your hip and see whether the screws are getting out and giving your problems in the hip. if that is the case you need to do the surgery to take out the plate and screws.
