I broke both my femurs and my right hip. I have a titanium rod in each leg now, a titanium plate on my hip, screws in my thighs, and used to have two screws in each knee, but got those taken out earlier this year because of the pain.




How old are you? Sometimes the ortho guyz might decide to take it out after a while but that depends. The screws removal from your knees is a standard procedure though - they call it "Removal of Painful Hardware." Also, what hardware did you get (in case you know) DePuy or Synthes?
