Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

I would explain that these hardpoints on your scull are quite normal and they are present in every healthy person ( also called external occipital protuberance).

In some persons they may be more prominent, depending or many factors (genetics, position of sleeping during infancy, etc).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
