Dent on top of forehead possibly on skull.  No history of any medical problem.  Help
Patient: HI, I recently noticed a on the top (right corner) of my forehead, a dent that was not there yesterday. I slid my fingers across the dent, and it feels as if, it's in the scull. I do not have any type of medical condition that I am aware of.I am very nervous and confused about how this happened. I don’t know if stress might be the culprit but that the only thing I can think of.Hopefully you can help me figure this out.Thank You Doctor: Hi,Thank you for posting your query.Dents in the skull are often asymptomatic (they do not produce any symptoms) and can be left alone. There is no need to worry about them. They can occur spontaneously (without any reason) or in relation to an injury to head.If you develop headache or any other neuro symptoms, please get a CT scan of th head done.Best wishes,Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology)Senior Consultant Neurologist
