Are Indentations On The Skull A Matter Of Concern?

I have two indentions that have recently formed near the top of my skull, one a few months ago and one a week ago. They are not soft and are not tender to the touch. I definitely know they didn t used to be there. What can cause this and is this something to be concerned about? Thank you, Sandy

Hi,

Since when are you suffering from this problem?

Possible causes are vitamin A toxicity or Gorham's disease or multiple myeloma etc.

Sebaceous cysts underlying bone may also present like this.

Please once consult your neurologist, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
