Hi i'm a 56 year old male and have had a neck resection done one year ago. My left lower, jaw was removed, and replaced with my fibula and a titanium plate. I attended my two month check up this week and was sent for an xray on a hard part of my throat just under where the jaw was cut and i have been told i now have ,bone growing downwards, from the joint in my jaw. Anyone with any exprience of this, advice would be much appreciated. Groggy
