Does Dent In Hip And Calf Affect Mobility

Hi there, I just have general question about bruises. I have a dent on the side of my leg near the hip and one on my calf That developed after bruises sustained from horse kicks. I have two friends that have dents from similar situations. Is this something that will affect mobility later in life? Are there any steps to reverse this? Thanks

Hello,

A dent on the side of the leg can be due to a fascia in the muscle mass that will not affect the mobility. This can be a physiological variation also.

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

Take care

Regards,
