Hi,Rose hurley,
Thanks for query,
It is surprised that you had fracture 9 weeks ago and applied plsater 1 week ago.
There is all the chances of having Mal union of compound fracture.
Consult orthopedics again and tell your problem.
Ok and bye.

Hello.Welcome.It is normal to have swelling after removal of plaster.If it pains then do hot fomentation but if it is not paining then it will go of it's own in 4 to 6 weeks time.Good luck.
