Hi,

I know the post is dated from 2022 but I just saw the same thing in my thigh and in one of my calf. No pain associated with those indents.
I'd like to know if someone has an answer or got a diagnostic from a doctor.
Thanks

Hello @ms1234, Welcome to Connect. I posted this earlier in the discussion but thought I would share it again. I have had dent's in my right calf muscle frequently and don't have pain with it. For me, I think it's related to my lymphedema. Here are a couple of possible explanations.

Have you discussed the dents with your doctor? Hopefully some other members will be able to share their experience also.
