Is MRI Necessary After A Dent Formation From Hitting The Forehead?

Hi, some months ago I hit the top part of my forehead at the hairline very sharply off the corner of an open drawer when I brought my head down quickly to pick up something I had dropped. The next day I could feel the impression that the drawer corner left on my forehead. Now a few months later I can feel that dent has increased in my forehead. Should I get an MRI to make sure it s all ok.? What is the fee for this information?

hi, we are here to clear your doubts. it is unlikely that after such a long time the dent is increasing. because you are concerned, you may opt for CT scan rather than MRI which is more expensive. hope this helped.
