What Causes Dent On Head?

My daughter is 31 yrs. old and today she asked about a dent in the back of her head, it s big in size. She said that she feels fine and she wanted to know if she had it as a child. She did not but she did hurt her head as a child in that same stop Ann had stitches. Could that be the reason for the dent?

Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

The answer to your question is yes, minimal trauma is one of the main reasons of skull dents.

It is not a problem since it is located in an invisible area (cosmetically speaking) and all that time passed.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Greetings.
