Three months ago, I had a bone graft to repair a non-union clavicle fracture. Although it is healing, the process is slow, and there are 'white spots' in the x-ray, with the union line still visible. Additionally, I have developed a significant skin eruption at the end of the scar on my shoulder, which the doctor believes is a metal allergy, and the plate will need to be removed in a year. How can I make the healing happen faster, and can I do something to minimize the metal reaction?
