Soft spot/ dent in the back of my head?!


Question: Ok, I have a couple of dents in the back of my head, where my skull/scalp just kind of dips in. I've noticed that a couple of my friends have the same thing. The area isn't soft, it's just a little more tender than the rest of my head. I was wondering if it's a soft spot, or if it's a dent that cam from my soft spot closing?

And is it something that I should be worried about? Oh yeah, and if the fontanelles have closed, why is that area dented?

I bet you would be more worried if you had a totally round head like a goldfish bowl..............
