A member asked:
Should i be concerned about about a dime sized, soft indentation on top of my head? approx 1/8th" deep caused by lamp falling on it about 2 weeks ago.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No. Not if you have no symptoms. No pain. No headache. If you had any immediate symptoms, like headache, confusion, loss of consciousness - you should be checked by a doctor to make sure you didn't sustain any intracranial injury.
