Hi @cladinviolet, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I see you are worried about the dent in your leg muscle. You will see that I moved your post to an ongoing discussion about this topic. I did this so that you can connect with other members like @trellg132, @johnhans, and @johnbishop who have contributed to this topic.

Is this the first dent that you have seen? Have you shared this with your primary?

Hi @cladinviolet, I would like to add my welcome to Connect along with @amandaburnett and other members. I used to have a small dent in my right leg on the side of the shin but haven't seen it for awhile. I discussed it in my post earlier in this discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/269233/. I think mine is related to my lymphedema. I did mention it to my primary care doctor and they said they thought it could be edema related. This was prior to my being diagnosed with lymphedema for which I now wear compression socks.

Have you done any research into what the possible causes for the dent in your leg?

Hello -
Can you tell us a little more about your history and when this occurred? How long have you noticed this dent, and exactly how large is it? Where is it on the thigh, and is there specific weakness in the leg? Have you had any surgeries on the hip or leg?
Sorry to bombard you with questions, but it is difficult to give any informed suggestions on a single phots.
