    Sir,

    I had broken my bone of right palm almost 3 and half months back. It was treated by normal plaster but after one month of injury when I visited a doctor he told me to remove the plaster and suggested me to start exercise giving contrast bath but after one more month the fingers are still stiff and the recent x-ray report shows that the fracture is still there and in addition to that osteoporosis in the bones is also evident. The plaster was done in unaligned manner and it is still in the same position. Please suggest me a homeopathy remedy for my this problem.
