They used the blue thread locker. You needed the red. I would try to get your money back.

The screw doesn't need to to be there after the bones have healed. They'll probably just pull it out. Infection is what I would be worried about. But there is no redness in your picture.

Have pins in my hand, one was starting to get annoying, it was coming out of the bone.
Doc numbed it up, made a small cut, and yanked the bitch out. |

I can't wear very many types of boots anymore, but not because the screws have backed out any. There's a couple that are just in bad spots and rub from the inside.
You probably need to get that looked at. |

Screw manufacturer? Some have proprietary head patterns and you can only use their drivers to remove the screws. In any case, it is not a Phillips. It will be a star or hex variant depending on size and manufacturer.

Quoted: I had a pin come loose when I shattered my hand. Ended up coming through the skin so I drove 2 Hours back to the hospital where the surgery was done. Homeboy grabbed it with a pair of pliers and pulled it out. I could have done that at home. View Quote Wife had bunion surgery, and while screwing in a bolt they cracked the bone. Ended up with an external pin sticking out of her foot. Which our cattle dog pulled out... Paladin |

Monday first thing:
1) Call to the place that did the work. Depending upon the result, which should be something like an immediate appointment with the surgeon, goto 2 2) Call lawyer, draw up papers for medical malpractice suit. Fax to medical center, wait 30 minutes, goto 1. |

Uhhhh... stop that. The last thing you need is for that to break through the skin and get your hardware infected.
Call your ortho and ask for their after-hours on-call doc for the group. Tell them you can see the screw head and offer to send them that video. |
|

infections at the surface are bad enough without a hole a couple inches deep to get in. go to the doctor.

The EMTs are going to find OP passed out with a screwdriver in hand, and a screw sticking out of the side of his foot.
Then OP's going to wake up in a padded room. |

I had one making its way out of my hand. Dr said because I get violent while coming out of anaesthesia if I'd be ok with him removing it why I was awake, sure thing let's do it.
He gave me a few shots in my hand and then froze the area with a can of compressed air. Didn't even make a incision, just grabbed the head of the nail with a pair of needle nose pliers and pulled that Motherfucker right out of my bone. It was pretty wild to watch. |
