Suggest Treatment For Indentation With Pain On Leg After An Injury

My 17 yr old daughter was hit on the left leg as she was between a car an a golf cart. The golf cart was moving and hit her. She now has about a 5 inch indention with pain on the side of her thigh. She can walk but it does hurt. Just wondering if there is any need to take he to the doc or will it heal itself in time

Hello,

This will be just a muscle injury and will heal on its own. For now, stabilize the thigh in the thigh brace. Do hot water fermentation. Simple exercises for the thigh like static quadriceps and static hamstring. She should do well.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
