What Could The Crater On Skin And Indentation On Lower Back Be?

I have a sudden indentation on the right side of my lower back right above my buttocks. It s sudden, painless, and about the size of a half dollar. I ve had no injury. It looks like my skin sunk in. I have no idea why. It looks like there is a very very slight color change but I wouldn t of even noticed it if it wasn t for the horrible, unsightly crater on my skin. What could this be?
