My Boyfriend Has A Titanium Rod That Is Attached To

My boyfriend has a titanium rod that is attached to the middle of his shin bone and screwwed to the bottom of his ankle or heel area. He has had it since 2004 and has suddenly been having some swelling and pain to the touch. Almost looks like when someone has swollen feet from high blood pressure as an example. He has no hurt it or done anything unusual. What could be wrong?
