What Is The Medication For Indented And Bruised Shin?
In August I injured my shin when climbing into a boat. At the time of injury muscle around my shin was deeply indented and bruised. Since the injury, the indentation has remained. It isn t as deep but very prominent and still slightly bruised. Will it ever heal, or am I stuck with a dent in my shin? Respectfully
