Suggest Remedy For Soreness And Dent In Right Shin Bone
Two weeks ago I was climbing a rock face when I slipped and whacked my left knee and right shin. The bruises have almost gone, but the dent in my right shin bone is still there and painful. I can t kneel down (sore to lean on) and it is very sore to touch.

Hii there,
Thanks for asking .
It appears that though you are injured you are capable to walk indicating that your shin bone is not fractured.
So it looks like blunt trauma has locally affected your bone so because of inflammation it is aching and it will take time to reduce and nothing to be worried about the dent.
So apply warm to the place where it is aching.
Hope you get well soon early
Thank you.
