Hi,

I have studied your case with diligence

If fracture is two yr old you may need surgery to fix it.
You may need bone graft if gap is more.
DO NOT NEGLECT SCAPHOID FRACTURE ITS VERY NOTORIOUS BONE TO UNITE.
You can consult your doctor for x ray and further treatment.


Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
