Hi.
It could just be a depression in the fusion of the fontanels and if so should have been there from the very beginning and you may have just noticed it now. Either way I would recommend a doctors visit because these things require a physical examination and cannot just be discussed verbally. But in my opinion there should be nothing to worry about.
Best wishes.
