Got a severe headache and my CT scan showed a 32mm calcified granuloma in the left frontal lobe. How serious is this and do I need surgery for it?
A calcified granuloma, especially if it's 32mm in size and in the frontal lobe, is generally not life-threatening, but it's crucial to understand the potential implications and get a proper medical evaluation. Calcified granulomas are usually benign and do not require treatment unless they are causing symptoms or are a sign of an underlying condition. Surgery is usually not necessary for a calcified granuloma itself

I've been having these vertigo episodes over the last six months, and despite seeing an ENT and getting all sorts of tests like VNG and audiometry, everything came back normal. The ENT even said it might not be vertigo and suggested I see a neurologist. I had an MRI done, but that was fine too. I've been on stuzeran 25 and renerve plus for about four months, and while there's a bit of improvement in my dizziness and motion sickness, it's nothing significant. Lately, I've started getting headaches after sitting in front of the computer for a long time, about 2-3 hours. I even saw an ophthalmologist, but my eyes are perfectly fine. With all these doctor visits, nobody's been able to pinpoint what's actually causing my problems. Any idea what's going on or what could be the reason for these headaches?
in conclusion, while many tests have come back normal, its still possible that issues like posture, stress, or medication side effects could be contributing to your ongoing symptoms. Its important to maintain open communication with your healthcare providers, and exploring physical therapy for your neck and posture might be a useful next step.
