Suggest Treatment For Indention On Shin

I have an indention on my shin that never goes away. I am also experiencing a lot of fluid patches or pockets that won t go away even after taking a fluid pill. I have other things that are being treated from a back injury could this be related to the spinal fusion I had done 3 years ago?

It shows that there must be swelling on that area and it can be related to your back problem as well as it can related to your blood pressure too. I suggest to check with blood pressure first and if that is fine then also check with your back mri. Till the time you don't have any weakness in muscles and change in sensation over the legs nothing to worry. But prevention is always better then cure so do check on the parameters I have suggested.
Take care.
