What is the indentation in the lower calf?
Patient: I have been having back pain. Had a fusion in 2011. going to physical therapy because I keep injuring my lower back. Have had constant numbness and sensations throughout left leg. Noticed tonight I had like an upside down V indentation in lower left calf. What could this be? Doctor: Hi you had fusion in 2011 in your back ,have constant numbness and now have an inverted V indentation in your calf.This kind of indentation is generally seen if there is a spasm in the calf muscle , may be due to pain .Once you have relief from pain , this could well go away.v
