due to an accident ,I damaged my thigh muscle 4 mo. later i still have a dent in my leg .will it go away?

Question:

Answers:
it could be due to something called atrophy. have you been using the leg, or have you been in a splint or cast? if the leg has not been getting enough exercise, the muscle will actually shrink. as long as the muscle cells don't die, it should be able to be brought back to completely normal with exercise/physical therapy.

go see a doctor, and she/he should refer you to a physical therapist.

Other Answers:
a dent on your thigh usually indicates a muscle tear. talk to your dr. about it, if it is not a major tear, time will heal it.
