Will A Dent In Leg After Hitting It Go Away With Time?

I recently tripped over a large concrete block and banged my shin on the side of this block. This was a couple of days ago but now that the scratch has healed, i can feel a dent in my leg thats lower than the rest of the area. Is this a problem to worry about, or will this just go away?

Hello,

This problem of a dent over the leg is nothing to worry about and will heal with time.

I will advise you to do balance board training to correct any muscle imbalance present can be corrected and other symptoms will be avoided.

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