Hello,

The pain and indentation in the leg can be due to a shin splint or due to a muscle cramp. You need to give rest to the area and get some oral muscle relaxants prescribed.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
