Hello,

I have studied your case history.

You will need X ray of wrist.
There is possibility of impingement of implant along soft tissue
As bone union is complete and implant is producing pain you can remove implant consulting your doctor
Clinical examination is important to know site of pain.
You can also send x ray photo on my profile.
Till time take medication like analgesic and apply crepe bandage. Do ice fomentation.

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.
