General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

I think there may be a malunited fragment and a revision surgery is required. Repeat surgery will be a better option to prevent complications like arthritis and stiffness.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
