Why Am I Prone To Dents On Body After An Injury?

For about a year, whenever I bump into something I get like a permanent dent in the area. I bumped by thigh on a table and now there is like a dent in the muscle. Same thing with my forehead. Seems odd, never been like this before. But I am 40yo now. Should I be concerned?

Hi,

These dents following injury may be because of poor muscle tone. You must do regular exercises in a gym. Yoga-based exercises will perhaps help you more. Take a normal balanced diet rich in multivitamins and antioxidants.

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

Regards,
Dr. Nirmal Chander Gupta,
