Indentation months after injury

Indentation months after injury

Back in june a garage door fell and hit me on the head.  A huge lump appeared instantly and was it was cut slightly.  I did not lose conciousness.  3 days after the event I got 2 black eyes. I did not seek medical attention. However 2 month on I have an indentation on the top of my head where the door hit me.  Is this normal or should i get it checked out?

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
It is possible that after the contusion subsided, there has been loss of soft tissue and fatty tissue beneath the skin of the scalp. There could also be a blow injury to the skull bone causing a dent. Yes, it would be wise to get this investigated once. Take care!
