Hello!
I read your question and understand your concern.
In my opinion this indentation may be since childhood after ossification of the head bones.
It is normal in many persons to have some imperfections on the head surface.
If you have never had this before, I would recommend to have some tests like a brain CT scan and calcium and Vit D plasma levels to determine the cause.
Hope to have been helpful!
Thank you for using HCM!
