What Causes An Indentation On The Forehead?

Hello, when i woke up this morning and was getting ready for my day i noticed that i had a noticeable dent in my forehead almost at the hairline, ive had a headache off and on all day and was just waiting for it to go away but when i went to get ready for bed i noticed that it is still there just the same as it was this. What could be the cause of this? It hurts when you touch it and like i said before you can see it very well

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is due to local compression while sleeping and I will settle by itself. As of now, no treatment is required either.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
