Ridges in head

Hi everyone,

I know that you guys are the best and won't pass judgment on me for asking this, so here it goes...

I was laying on the couch with my kids last night and when I touched my head to adjust my hair I felt a valley near the hair line continuing to the top of my head. It's a weird discontinuity that I feel when say running my fingers on my head from one side to another. All of a sudden there's a dip or ondulation. I don't feel anything soft or moving like a lump, it just feels like this is the shape that my head has taken. I hadn't noticed it before, hence my question.

Any clue on what this could be? My anatomy? Anything else?

My apologies on what appears to be nothing (but as we know any little thing is now cause for concern - at least for the worry freak that I am!)

Thanks!!!
