I HAVE A DENT IN MY TIBIA ABOUT 1/3 OF THE WAY UP.  I JUST NOTICED IT.  I HAD A STRESS FRACTURE 3 MONTHS AGO IN THE SAME AREA AND A BONE CYST WAS SEEN ON THE MRI.  PAIN HAS GONE EXCEPT FOR MOMENTARY GLITCHES OF PAIN IN THE BONE BUT THIS DENT JUST CAME UP THIS MORNING.  SHOULD I CALL MY ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON?
Hello, If there was a bone cyst with presence of recent dent then I shall advise you to consult to your orthopedic doctor. In an old case of bone cyst with recent change in architecture with or without associated pain may signify change in behavior of disease. This should be clinically assessed & an x-ray or CT should be done. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
