Would The Dent On Head Caused By An Injury Lead To Something Serious?
I misjudged the car door yesterday and the corner hit me in the forehead right at the hairline. I got attled for a few seconds but then it went away. But now I have a small dent there. Is this something I should get checked or would I have symptoms if it was something serious?

Hello
It seems from the history that you had a injury to the head following which you have a dent in the skull bone. This indicates relatively severe impact. If you have symptoms like loss of consciousness, bleeding from nose or ears.... all these indicate head injury which require evaluation by a doctor urgently.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
