I think the gap is caused by swelling and the torn ligaments that have not restored their strength.

An operation means another 6 weeks recovery and I simply cannot afford. The Ortho in ER did not say I need a surgery. The fractures as far as I can see were healed. THe only thing is now the swelling that is still pretty bad. All surgeons are more or less the same. THey like the operation for one or more reasons.
