What Causes A Dent At Bruised Area On Buttocks?

I fell in December and caused a serious bruise to my right butt cheek. Over the last couple of weeks I have developed a dent in that same butt cheek. At the time of my fall my doctor s office xrayed my right arm and hip and had no fractures. What is causing this dent?

Hello,

It could be a simple muscle in drawing only. You can go for an MRI scan for further assessment. Consult an orthopedic and he will direct you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
