Can’t turn LON fixator anymore

Edit Post

Hi guys, I am panicking so much about my fixator and since I haven’t read about this issue before on this forum, I was wondering if anybody heard of it or had the same experience.
My left LON fixator for my tibia is now impossible to turn, it kept getting more difficult where I had to use more force which was a lot of stress on my leg but it has gotten to the point where turning it is impossible and I can’t do my scheduled lengthening, which gives me so much anxiety.
Anybody know the cause of this or had a similar experience?

The metal rod that you plug the Alan key into. Is it out of alignment.

ie poking out more at the top than the bottom or reverse?

You can tap it back in with the Alan key but talk to dr first maybe.

Also try to hold the metal part so that it takes the counter force (if that makes sense)..

If you are still in turkey the guys can reset it.

I'd put money on the metal turning cylinder popping out at one side.

Because the exact same thing happened to me.
