Suggest Treatment For Indentation On The Shin
Hi, I have a small dent about half way up my shin about half an inch in length, not v deep. it feels like a chip out of the bone, it doesnt hurt and can only be felt if I run my finger up my leg with a bit of pressure. Is it anything to be concerned about? I am on a vegan diet could this have caused it?
