What Causes Indentation On Shin Bone?
I have never broken any bones,and I have not fallen or been injured in any way. The past year I have noticed an indentation by my Shinn bone, I don t have any pain but my leg is beginning to look a little deformed. Do I need to worry? Thanks, Kari

Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, painless indentation without history of any injury is suggestive of any abnormal slow growing growth, you should get yourself an x ray done to see any such possibility in the bone, but if its in your soft tissue, than you need to see your doctor and get investigated.
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
Thanks
