I'm looking at my MRI results and I'm seeing terms like calcified granuloma in the right parietal lobe and mild diffuse cerebral atrophy. Can you help me understand what these really mean? Is there something I should be worried about?

I'm really struggling because I'm super sensitive to light and sound. I sometimes have to work night shifts, and the flashlights during those times just make my headaches way worse. It's becoming a daily thing now, and it's hard for me to focus on my work or even on stuff at home. Can you give me some advice on how to handle this?

I've been getting these bad headaches every time I take a head bath, and it doesn't matter if the water's hot or cold. Sometimes the pain's so intense that I even feel like throwing up. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

The recurring headaches triggered by taking a head bath, regardless of water temperature, could be related to various factors, including scalp tension, sinus pressure, or sensitivity to shampoo or water pressure; consider trying the following: use gentle, fragrance-free shampoo; warm up your scalp with a gentle massage before washing; avoid using hot water, which can cause blood vessels to dilate and lead to headaches; try taking breaks during the bath to relax and breathe deeply
