Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Does A Small Indentation Outside The Calf Indicate?
I have a small indentation on the outside of my right calf. I'm a very active (I run and lift weights) 57 year old male. I take small doses of both high blood pressure and cholesterol medicine. My family has a history of Type 2 diabetes. I don't smoke and rarely drink alcohol. Your thoughts?

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It might be that your calf has tightened a bit. Try calf stretching everyday and it will help you out.
