You risk your bone not healing fully which could result in nonunion or pseudoarthrosis. Non unions can require internal or external fixation as well as bone grafting. You also risk deformity caused by malunion. Malunion may be treated by breaking the bone that is malaligned and open reduction with internal fixation. You could also hurt yourself trying to remove it.
Nonunion
Bone growth stimulation is done when satisfactory healing is not occurring naturally or when the pace of healing is too slow. This condition is called fracture nonunion.
Fracture point
A tibial fibular osteotomy may be needed to correct deformities or realign the bones in the lower leg, such as in cases of malunion or nonunion fractures, osteoarthritis, or to address limb length discrepancies. This procedure can help improve the function and stability of the lower leg, reducing pain and promoting better mobility for the patient.
consumers pressured businesses by boycotting nonunion goods.
The incorrect alignment of bone ends is called a "malalignment." This can happen as a result of a bone fracture or dislocation, where the bone ends do not meet or align properly. Treatment may involve realignment through manual manipulation or surgery.
