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.
I was wondering why I have a vertical indent in the middle of my forehead it s not soft or tender. It s hard to see but you can faintly feel it. When I was younger I ran into a wall on that same spot I also fell of the bed a couple times on my head when I was little. Do u think the indent could be from me hitting my forehead when I was little?

Hi there..about the dent in the middle of your forehead.. yes, it might have been caused by repeated trauma to the area when you were little .Its nothing to worry . It might just be an area of bone deficiency. But this can be ignored.If this is still bothering you, you may get an MRI done after consulting an orthopaedician t look in for bone loss in the area.
