I had surgery 2 years ago for a subdural hematoma which i got from a fall. everything been going fine except for the last two weeks i have been experiencing severe headaches on the left side of my head. Is this a common problem after this type of surgery?

hi, headaches 2 yrs after the surgery may not be related to the earlier lesion.Please consult Neurosurgeon and get yourself examined again(repeat CT scan).

Do you feel dizzy?.Any history of nausea or vomiting since last week?
