Hello dear,
I understand your concern.A small dent is unlikely to cause major pain.Possibly it was there earlier too,but incidentally you noticed it now and it is the stress factor that is causing your headache.It is a 'Tension type headache'(TTH) that you are having as you are having typical features of it(pain like something is pulling out your hair). I suggest you to go to your physician and get examined by him.He will probably be able to reassure you.I hope it helps.
