Sometimes these hollows (haws you say? Never heard that before) become filled with fluid. If it doesn't go away in a few days, I'd ring the vet as there could be nothing wrong, but at the same time, it could be indicative of other problems.

Just going to remind everyone (just in case you've forgotten!) that we can't give veterinary advice here, but anyone who can share experiences with the OP is welcome to do so.
