Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is Dent In Back Of Head Suggestive Of Bone Cancer?
Yes my daughter said she just found a dent in the back of her head. She is worried but she also has a baby that has to go to Ronald McDonald house for blockage in uthera n I know she is worried but she is thinking it could be bone cancer or something about spinal fluid
A dent in the back of the head may require investigation, but I doubt it could be something so extreme as cancer. Although investigation will be required to find the cause, I doubt this is anything serious to worry about. Visit your doctor for a physical examination and if at all required a CT scan of the head as well.
Best wishes.
