Brief Answer:
Needs to be removed

Detailed Answer:
Hi there

Thanks for the query

It would be better to get it removed to prevent further damage on movement and also risk of infection and sepsis.

Do get it removed under ultrasound or Xray guidance by a trained doctor in the Emergency room.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
