What Causes Indentation In The Middle Of Right Thigh?
Hello :) my name is Ashleah and I m 21 years old. Since about 3 weeks ago, I ve noticed an indentation in the middle of my right thigh. it s horizontal and about 3 inches in length. I m only 9 stone so not over weight, it s not a muscular dent and I haven t had any recent injuries to my leg, as far as I m aware. There is no pain or any strange sensation, however, it s nothing I ve come across before so quite worried. Didn t want to go to my doctors as they re quite pants. Would you be able to offer any advice? Thank you!

Hello,
A picture of the indentation needs to be seen before giving advice. You can consult your doctor with reports. I believe it can be enlarged lymph nodes as a result of infection. Do also a total blood count with formula.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
