		<description>I have 3 dents in mine. A very deep one at the crown of my head which I have had for a very long time. I now have 2 new ones. One is at the side of my head and one on top. The one on top seems to keep getting worse and I have a lot of pressure from it. Sometimes I feel like I have been punched real hard, but pain lasts 30 sec or so but during that time vision sometimes is a bit blurry. Im hoping someone knows what is going on. I seen someone posted about ringing in ears. I always have a ringing, I know it sounds weird and I think it is...just need some anwsers.</description>

		<description>so many people so little awnsers. Im 25 fem. i have had dents in my head for the past few months.. I was affected by alopecia arreata.. and went to a dermatologist and recieved a series of shots at my hair line where i was going bald.. a couple months went by my hair grew back but i had two major dents in my skull where the shots were given.. i thought maybe it was a side effect. i went back to the dermatologist about 6 months later when i started finding more blad spots. when i showed him the dents where the shots were given before  he was dumb founded.. he said that its not normal and dents that size are usually caused by injury or birth defects.. we decided to test another area  with shots.. he gave me less shots and a smaller area and told me to come back in 6 weeks.. 4 weeks later i can feel a new dent..where the shot was given. but i also have a new dent in my hair line that wasnt there before.. totalling 4 dents.. i do have what feels like sinus pressure in my forehead . the doctor said he did some research and nothing like this has been medically reported before.. but i saw scotts blog back in march 07 about his wife... sounds pretty similar.. feel free to contact me if your story is similar.. im pretty scared .  kokopelli2332@aol.com</description>

		<description>I left some information on my step daughter  a couple of months ago.  In doing research I have found she has untreated Coronal Synostosis.  The deterioration can stop or get worse over time.  Most people have it repaired at a young age if detected.  This can cause a dent on either side of the head up the hair line some extending down through the nose causing a deviated septum.  Not everyone is going to look the same so looking at pictures may not help you.  My daughter&#039;s is very deep and runs from her hairline to the tip of her nose.  I was only focusing on the dent and not the fact that the other side of her forehead is shaped slightly different due to the malformation on her left side.  When she wakes or is tired it is more prominent.  I am trying to figure out what else would be helpful but I only wish you all good luck.  My stepdaugher feels ugly and it has had a drastic affect on her life.  It breaks my heart and I cannot wait until she can try to have some plastic surgery to correct it.  Take care and God&#039;s speed!</description>

		<description>I have read with interst all of your comments, and I am amazed so many people are affected, with seemingly little medical explainations?  Can anyone tell me if the know anything about skull lumps?  an early post mentioned an itchy scalp - which i have - that led to the discovery of tumors. Under my itch the skull seems to be protruding in comparison to the opposite side.
Naturall I am concerned and will see GP next week, but any news from you all would be greatfully received</description>

		<description>Hello all,
I just noticed my dents in the last 2-3 weeks.  I called my Dr. and he did a blood test to check out my alkaline phosphatase level, this would indicate Paget&#039;s disease...but it was fine.  I have discovered more in the last week ,so I called him again, to schedule an appointment...he said I could see his nurse practitioner. As you can guess, I&#039;m on the hunt for a new GP!
In one of the comments I noticed Sam said his dents itched - mine itch also.  I also read where one man has constant ear ringing, I do as well.  Also, someone else complained about sinus problems, especially on the same side of her head as the dents, also a symptom of mine.  But, as of now, I have not had a problem with headaches.
This is troublesome, I can&#039;t stop touching them, and I&#039;m always looking for new ones.  I&#039;m very worried.  I think I will take the advise offered in one of the comments and call my dermatoligist, maybe she will be helpful.  I&#039;m also going to google Scleroderma en coup de sabre as soon as I submit this comment.
I can&#039;t believe how many people suffer from this.  Hopefully, we are all suffering from a normal case of &quot;settling&quot;, you know, like an old house!  Of course, I&#039;m 63 years old, so I can say that easily,  a poor attempt at a little touch of humor - believe me, I am not mocking anyone.
Take good care everyone.  I hope we all get answers soon.</description>

		<description>Hi all!
Well all i can say is thank gd i am not alone, i have too long dents the top of my head and only noticed tehm a few months ago, but i to have been assured by many people that they have probally been there forever and because you get older and hair thins and i have also changed from parting my haod on the side which leaves the dents spot uncovfered. i have been told its normally and most times its happens through birth like forceit delivery, suction or just doct or nurses grabbing babbies head  so i am just going to keep and eye on it i do not get headaces or pain from it and i did split my head open a few times when i was young around that spot

so unless it changed or aches i feel after reading everyone posts its actually quite normal</description>

		<description>I noticed recently a lump over my eye on my forehead.  Then I noticed on the top of my head on both sides of my part there are two indentures about an inch long.  My doctor thinks it may be pagers disease.  I had a scull series of X-rays today and am waiting for results.  Hope all is well</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve recently been to visit my daughter who lives in another state and she has told me to keep pressing on and to get another opinion if my GP won&#039;t take notice of what I&#039;ve told him.

Apart from my headaches, I have also noticed my vision is terrible.

I&#039;m making another appointment and demanding answers.

Now my sister who lives in Queensland tells me she also has the same dent in her head and the same place and it&#039;s been there forever but I know mine hasn&#039;t so I will be seeking answers.</description>

		<description>I noticed a change in my skull shape.. Like a dent just to the left of my part.. I have been having headaches, pressure like.. Mild but constant.. Dizziness.. Blurry vision sometimes.. Tiredness and my memory has been a little off as well as my hearing.. Im booked in do a ct scan in 2 days.. The doctor said my anterior fontanel isnt fused.. This should have happened as a toddler.. And ive not noticed it until now. Its almost like its separating. The doctor said its rare but couldnt/wouldnt explain anything to me.. Heres hoping everything is fine.</description>

		<description>I see alot of posts but no one really says what causes the dents. My sister has one on her forehead and has now found one under her cheekbone. I see alot her for on top of the head, but has anyone had the indents on their forehead or face? What did you find out?</description>

		<description>Hi, I read all these response to dent in skull/head.  I am a 50 yr. old female who recently found I have about 3 cm. round dent or hole in my right side of head behind my ear within an inch of my hairline.  At first I think I discovered while watching the movie &quot;Dear John&quot; Friday, March 12, 2010.  It was feeling slightly uncomfortable there, and I ran my fingers over the spot and was quite put back when I found a hole in my head.  It is perfectly round and symetrical and it kind of made the rest of the movie a bit unhappy.  I sat there throughout the entire movie worried, as I have had a lot of headaches lately, and my eye sight has changed drastically.  I get pain in my eyes by the end of the day and now I am quite worried.  I guess I will go and get a MRI soon, and see what this could be.  I will let everyone on this site know my results when it is done. Please keep in touch my fellow head indents......Dee in NJ</description>

		<description>When I was 17 I had a wall fall on my head causing a dent in my skull and my neurosurgeon cleared me. He told me however I would have chronic migraines for the rest of my life. However I am developing new dents so if you have any ideas let me know</description>

		<description>Hi, I am so glad I found some information on this subject. I also have two large indentations on the sides of  my head and about 3 smaller ones on top of my head. I have felt them since last year, but did not pay too much attention to it, till last August 2009, when my sister who cuts hair, was giving me a hair cut, and asked me...hey what are these lines that you have on your head ?...I have never felt them before when I cut your hair, it is making it difficult cut it. So, since then I have been  a littel concerned and was looking for the opportunity to mention it to my doctor. Well, yesterday I had a sick doctor appt and I mention it to my doctor( certified Nurse Practitioner) and she palpated my head and she was very surprised. She said never saw it and that she did not know what it was. So she went and got another one of the doctors colleague of her and she also palpated my head with same reaction..so my doctor told me she was going to consult another colleague and would call me back. And she did, she called me back later yesterday and said that my doctor and her decided that do do some blood work and a CT Scan, just to make sure that all the brain bony structures are ok. Now, by reading all of the things people have written in this website, it seems to me that this is very common, but with different signs/symptoms to some people. So, I am going to follow my health provider advise and go ahead and do the tests and r/o any condition that may be serius. I am a Registered Nurse, so I want to be an example and follow the advise I was given.  I will write about my tests results as appropiate. Thanks to  all the people that have share their stories and concerns.</description>

		<description>Ok, I went to my GP this morning and he&#039;s assured me it&#039;s nothing to worry about and that it&#039;s probably been like it my whole life but as you get older the skin on your scalp gets thinner, making it more noticeable, so I&#039;ll wait to see if it changes but in the meantime I&#039;ll continue to take Panadol for the headaches.</description>

		<description>Hi There Fellow Denters,

I&#039;m from Australia, female and early 50&#039;s.

I&#039;ve just returned from a trip to the hospital but the doctors were baffled to find the reason for the indentation on my head, from the centre of my forehead to the top of my head.

I can run my finger down the line and was very worried and intend to see my GP tomorrow to put my mind at ease.
My hair is also thinning and I&#039;ve had head pain but that&#039;s due to post shingles from 5 months ago.
I wear my glasses on the top of my head and because I&#039;ve recently moved states, I&#039;ve been a bit stressed.

I&#039;ll fill you in on my trip to the GP tomorrow.

This dent thing only appeared tonight.</description>

		<description>My step daughter has a &quot;dent&quot; as everyone states on theleft side of her head from her hair line to her nose.   This is a diagnosed birth defects that can be slight at birth and then deteriorates with time.  Hers became worse at about age 8 and seems to have slown down.  She is now 16.  I will look up the name again and post it.  It is an extremely long word that basically means...the deterioration of the tissue in the head.  Sometimes trauma can cause this to increase.  Plastic surgery can correct this but you must be certain the deterioration has slowed or stopped.  I hope this helps some of you.  When I find the definition and a link I will post it.  You may email me at minyangels@yahoo.com</description>

		<description>I too found two large dents just about an inch past my hairline this morning while brushing my hair back.  freaked out a bit..  read and read post after post.  one hit the nail on the head i think.  someone mentioned glasses with nosepieces resting on top of their heads.  i went and put my glasses where they rest for 8 hrs a day, and bingo, the indents are right where the nosepieces are.  if they leave dents in your nose, im sure gravity will help them leave dents in your head.  any of you reading these posts who wear glasses with nosepieces which sit on top of their head any part of the day, go look where those nose pads sit when on top of your head.  im sure you will find the dents are directly under the pads.  mean ol&#039; mr. gravity.</description>

		<description>Like you guys I found a dent in my head.  I mentioned it to my Doctor, who didn&#039;t know why it was their so ordered an xray.  They x-ray showed thinning of the bone.  I was then sent to the hospital for an MRI scan that showed &quot;yep you have a dent&quot; but also that the bone is about a 1/3 the thickness in that spot.  The Doctor said that it isn&#039;t a tumor and they had never seen it before. but were pretty sure it was all normal.  They want to check in about 6 months that that area has not thinned any more, but believe it is unlikely.  The one thing that I do have to do is wear head gear if I want to do any contact sports.</description>

		<description>I recently noticed an indentation next to a hair graft from surgical removal because I have skin cancer primarily on my scalp. I am going thru the same thing with the docs saying, &quot;I don&#039;t know what it is&quot; even after the cat scan was done. I believe its bone loss from canellogg injections. Some websites say its from osteoporosis but I dont have that. I am sick and tired of these doctors who are trained professionals and who you would expect their comment to be &quot;I am not sure but lets find out.&quot; The bottom line is they do not care. I guess these bones just fell out of my head!!!!</description>

		<description>I have the same thing. 2 paralell dents on the right side. The 1st started about 6 month ago. Noticed the 2nd about 3 month&#039;s ago. Yes, there was lot of stress at the time as well. When the 1st one on the right side developed I had same headaches starting on the left top of my skull. Some ringing in the ears, felt like I was getting Tinnitus. That all went away. No other symptoms now. I am lefthanded. I do not take anti depressants, since I do not believe in psycho pharmaceutica.I have no hairloss in the area or discoloration. I am 56, live in California. Would be interesting to have a map to see if everybody that has this is concentrated around larger cities, manufacturing or????</description>

		<description>quote Bellino:

&#039;What the ef?

So many people with dents in their foreheads and no explanation whatsoever? I as well have a dent in it, unsymmetrical, spreading vertical from my hairline to my brow in a “S” shape. Well, had this for years now and was always wondering how to get rid of it. Of course, forehead flap not an option.&#039;

I have the same fuckin thing! Doesn&#039;t hurt or anything, it&#039;s just annoying. Sometimes it&#039;s barely visible, but sometimes it&#039;s very noticeable (depending on the light/shadow effect). I was so annoyed by it, I googled the whole forehead flap thing and FFS techniques, but when I saw that shit I knew it was out of the question. And I don&#039;t understand why there&#039;s no alternative ways of getting rid of this.</description>

		<description>Well i had the opposite effect when i turned 17.  My head was pretty tiny, maybe a circumference of 19-20 inches but in no less than a week it swelled to about 22 inches, accompanied by bizarre lip swelling.  ive read that it could be a pituitary disorder.  i have two bony bumps on the sides of my head that make it appear round because the hair has to curve around them, if they weren&#039;t there my skull would be much smaller and actually have a nice shape.  It might sound crazy but it is even hard to keep my head up straight because of the stress on my neck; im always paranoid that its getting bigger but thankfully it hasn&#039;t, just more paranoid.  i was actually a very good looking guy before, a solid 9 but my appearance quickly degraded to about 2-3 in less than a week.

There is something called Acid-A-Cal that has a great reputation for restoring normal bone mineral levels; it even gets rid of kidney stones and heel spurs.   i only tried it for a month several years ago to see if it would restore my skull to a normal appearance but i dont think i gave it enough time to notice any significant changes.  Also, make sure you are getting enough vitamin d, in particular d3, as it is very important for inducing osteoclasts and bone restoration.  Good luck guys!</description>

		<description>from Rose:
  I am 64 year old female and 1 dent appeared last summer- doctor said &quot;I&#039;ve never seen anything like that&quot; and was stumped. Ordered brain scan- showed &quot;benign&quot; fibrous tissue and calcium deposits under the skull in those areas.
  Second smaller dent appeared a month ago. HELP! My scalp feels (tight) in those areas with an occasional sting of pain in the large dent area.
  My question: I take S.R.R.I antidepressants . All modern ANTI DEPRESSANTS like Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa, Luvox and many many others work the same way- they alter brain chemistry to make neurotransmitters like seratonin, norepinephrin and dopamine more available, which relieves depression.(I am a licensed health care provider). The one I take has also helped tremendously with relieving my depression symptoms.
  How many of you also take these antidepressants? Could some of us have a reaction involving brain chemistry/fluid balances etc. that is not yet known about?  Of course we are all guinea pigs since these chemicals have not yet been studied for long-term effects. Once they are, any adverse reactions will of course be at first denied by their producers who stand to make large profits from the continuing sale of their medicines.
   Any women my age (64) who just started getting these &quot;dents&quot; in the skull? any new answers?</description>

		<description>i tried to read everything, wore out, so don&#039;t know if this info is in a post.  as he/she matures sexually, parts of the brain expand, in particular, at the back of the head.  females have add&#039;l problem.  swelling (caused by add&#039;l brain tissue) can make strong contact with nerves above the top of spine. causing headaches.  when childbearing age is past and the extra brain material dissipates, the skull eventually pulls back together.   my best advice:  balanced meals, take D, calcium, and eat iceberg lettuce for k2.  lay off cigs (i have seen how nicotine destroys tissue) and  excessive drinking.  so your body has nutrients to make the changes that mother nature demands.</description>

		<description>I just searched skull indentations and found a various comments from numerous of people. I am not alone with discovring these indentations in my forward.  They have appeared i nthe last couple of months, I am female, african american, age 49.5.  I have checked with my physicain and had him to actually feel what I was feeling o nmy forehead.  His comment &quot;a skull indentation, asked about prior injuries, and jokingly recommended collegen injections.&quot;  He was not concerned, I paln to see a dermatologist to follow -up and get more information if there is any to be gotten.  But, I &#039;m suelyr glad to know I am not the only one experiencing this.

Let me know if anyone of you find out some medical reasoning behind this.  I do wonder in a couple of years if i am going to have a line of  obvious craters in my forehead.</description>
