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.
Why Am I Having Dent On The Top Of My Skull And Tibia Of My Left Leg?
I just discovered a dent on the top of my skull that was not there just a few days ago. I haven t been in any accidents or hit my head! What s strange is that I have a dent in the tibia on my left leg that mysteriously appeared a few years ago, and there was no trauma to that area either. What could be wrong?
A dent on the skull can happen due to osteoporotic changes in the bones. The dent on tibia can be related to shin splints. Direct examination will help in confirmation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
