What could a strange deep line on the right side of my head be?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I carefully saw your uploaded photo (attachment removed to protect patient identity) and would explain that this indentation could be related to differential possible causes likecalcium or vitamin D deficiency and bone reformation, chronic inflammation, or a hormonal disorder or etching. For this reason, I would recommend performing some tests if this phenomenon persists: A double view X-ray study of the skull. Calcium and vitamin D plasma levels. Complete blood count, procalcitonin, and sedimentation rate to check inflammation. LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) and ALP (alkaline phosphatase) plasma levels. Blood electrolytes. A brain CT (computed tomography) scan would give much more information on the skull structure compared to the X-ray study. All the above tests can be performed by your GP (general physician).

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com. The treatment depends on the above-mentioned test results, which will help identify the possible cause. I recommend performing those tests before coming to a conclusion. In case of vitamin D deficiency, calcium and vitamin D supplements would be needed. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and with their consent take the medicines. As long as you do not experience headaches, fever or any other symptoms, the situation does not seem to be related to any serious medical condition. Regards.
