weird dent in my thigh

[sniperkris]

OK, so I'm not really sure what to put this under but I have this horizontal dent in my right thigh.  It's right in the center on the front and it's about 2 inches long.  It's like someone pressed their finger into my leg and the indention never left.  If I press it it doesn't hurt but then to the left it feels like this little ball and THAT kind of hurts a little when I touch it.

I had a knee injury in the same leg a couple of years ago.  The doctor said that nothing was torn so I'm not sure what kind of injury it was.  They said my kneecap prob. popped out and popped back in.  I'm just wondering if that could have something to do with it?  

Also, I'm not really physically active, so could it be that my muscle is deteriorating or something like that?  I'm only 25...

I just want to know what it is so I can get rid of it.

I highly doubt it's a defined muscle. That won't be it. I don't know about where you live, but usually there are clinics at pharmacy stores like CVS and Riteaid. They have a PA there that you can go to for little cost. It could be many things, but it's hard to say what it exactly can be without a physical examination.

I don't really have the money to see a doctor right now and I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of this before?  

Is it possible for your muscles to get defined without even working out???

Sounds like something is blocking a vein.  It might be worth having the doctor take a look.
