Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had surgery on my broken ankle 7 weeks ago. Fractured the fibula. There is now a plate and 10 screws in it. The surgeon anchored the fibula to the tibia with one long screw. He is going to remove the long screw in two weeks. He says he will use a local anesticia. Is there pain involved in removing bone screws?
