Dent on the head

We noticed a dent on the top left of our son's head at around 7 months old. This is visible on the X-rays and the brain wave measurement did not show anything abnormal. The dent is still there and has not changed. The doctors suspect it may have been caused by a fall or possibly from a vacuum extraction birth. I have noticed that the left pupil is occasionally larger than the right, usually in the evening or when Lian is very tired. Could this be a sign of increased brain pressure or a tumor originating from the dent? Thank you.
