Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I broke my ankle in 3 places 16 years ago. I had a plate, pins, and a screw in my ankle for six months. Because of problems after six months all the hardware was removed. I ve never had any problems, till the past week. I m having pain on the sides of my ankle and sometimes the pain goes up my leg to mid-calf. Is this just life or should I see a doctor, and what kind of doctor. The doctor who did my surgery is now retired
