I've noticed this weird dent at the top of my skull, like where a baby's soft spot would be, and I'm not sure how long it's been there. It's a little tender if I press on it, but not really painful. I haven't had any serious head injuries, just the usual bumps. Do you think this is something that could just develop over time, or should I be worried about it?

A soft spot in the skull or fontanelle is a normal feature for babies, but unusual for adults. If you are experiencing tenderness in that area, it may be worth getting it checked by a healthcare professional.

I've been dealing with this issue after getting into a fight where a girl pulled my hair really hard and even kicked it. Ever since then, I've noticed a dent in my head and when I try to put my hair up, there's this big lump that runs across my whole head. It feels like there's fluid inside and it's super uneven. I've been to the doctor and even the hospital, but nobody seems to know what it is, and it's really painful. What could this be, and do you have any ideas on how I can get relief?

That could be contusion or hematoma no need to worry it will settle with time take adequate rest and you can try warm compression

I'm really curious about something to do with migraines. When you have a migraine headache and you touch your forehead, is it supposed to feel hot or cold? I'm trying to understand what the typical sensation is during these headaches. Would love to hear your thoughts.

vDuring a migraine, the forehead is often warm or hot to the touch due to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), which is a characteristic feature of migraines, although some people may experience a cold or clammy sensation, particularly if they are experiencing nausea or anxiety.

I'm really concerned because for the past few days, my index finger on the left hand has been twitching a lot. It doesn't hurt, but it used to happen only occasionally and now it's happening all the time. I work with computers all day, but this twitching occurs even when I'm not using the laptop, like when I'm just resting. My other fingers are totally fine. When I saw a doctor, they mentioned it might be due to computer use or a vitamin deficiency. I'm just wondering, could there be any other reason for this? Is there any medication I could take to help with the twitching?

each organ of the body can withstand some amount of stress , if strain for muscle exceeds its capacity muscle become fatigue and causes twitching. This is not only for finger , it happens after strenuous exercise , anxity etc.. Nothing to worry , take nutritious food and strengthen your muscles .
