I had a xray done of my leg but nothing came up. There is a visible dip on both my shins, like if you run your hand down the front of my leg you just swoop down for a second. The doctors don t know what could have caused it or what it is but could it be soft tissue damage? I ve had it for the last few years....its really soft and I can push it down a bit further before any pain. I was military so running doesn t hurt as far as I ve noticed.
Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough musculoskeletal assessment is advised. As you were a military, so the training you have undergone has lead to the stress and strain on the bone and the muscles. The biomechanics of the muscle is quite different to balance the weight of the body and transform to a different axis. Getting a kinematic assessment by a sports physical therapist in a kinematic lab can help understand the muscle biomechanics. Since there is no pain, usual general doctors may not be able to understand the biomechanics of the muscle and the mechanism involved for this depression. When there is no pain there is nothing needed to worry as such. I have been seeing military candidates, and they have certain difference muscle biomechanics and by no chance they lead to any symptoms. If you want to understand more on the biomechanics of the issue you are having, getting a kinematic lab use will be fruitful. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
