Adult Head/Skull and soft spot similiar to a newborn child.

I have this soft spot that I never noticed on my head. It's similiar to when a child is young/born and they have 'soft' spot(s) on the head. For a long time now, I have had major headaches that just won't go away and also I do have a lot of stress. I am not sure if all this is related to the bad allergy/sinusitus problems that I live with.

I thought i was the only person that feared something was not right. I have always had a soft spot but for the past couple of years that "soft sopt" has gotten worse. When i stand up right from sitting down i become very light headed and dizzy. I also gets headaches and migranes. At time, i forget things and i feel exhausted and tired. My soft spot is extremely tender and is the size of a 3 year old fist. I hope i find a healthy way to overcome this.... thing..

well guest what me too, and even worst cause i was born with it, my mom told me, she noticed an open spot in the middle of my head( posterior fontanelle), any doctor will tell you, its normal in an infant but my haven't change much, and my mom noticed a big difference in my spot compare to my siblings. growing up i suffer a lot from dizziness, severe headache, sinusitis, and all rest, especially when studding, that spot make it impossible at times, cause it gives me pain, very interesting this toping, so far hope we find answers while waiting for good health insurance.
